A Gentle Touch

A Gentle Touch

A Poem by Trace
"

The power of a Kiss

"






T’was something more than a gentle touch


As fingers soft, my neck caressed


The simple effort wouldst convey so much


As lovers concede their souls undressed,


 


Doth not require the blossoming rose


Freshly picked wild flowers are fine


Or a verse, a poem, that you compose


That promises of a love divine,


 


Do tell me dear you feel the same


Yes tell me precious your heart is true


Unspoken desires like a burning flame


When softly whispered……  I love you,


 


Tis the simple things, express so much


As lovers share,  A gentle touch.

Author's Note

Trace
The softest expression
of love is felt
when wanting lips
together melt.

The line form is nice, and this reads at a nice meter. I love the depiction of wild roses as standing brighter than the picturesque rose. My only comment would be that the person being address could be addressed more simply to add to your fab notion. For example, 'yes tell me precious your heart is true', might be closer and more personal as 'tell me your heart is true', if that makes sense? But that is probably just me haha! Everyone is different and this is truly beautiful as it is. :)

Nice work!

A gentle touch can mean more than diamonds and pearls. Actions speak louder than gifts.

No doubt about it, Trace, a kiss says so much. It is practically more intimate than love making. You've expressed it beautifully here. Melting lips...mmmmm...yes. Lydi**
