EVERYTHING

EVERYTHING

A Poem by An owl on the moon
"

Everything about you�

"

I don’t know

how you do it;

entering a crowded room

and somehow

all I see is you…

You let me

close my eyes

and listen

to the sound

of your gentle voice

as you read

our favorite books

aloud in bed…

Dancing in the kitchen

when there’s

no music

but the shuffling

of your feet…

How you sway

and wiggle

and smile over at me…

Oh your laugh,

your touch,

that freckle…

How the sun

plays in your hair…

And when

someone’s in need

you’re there

lending a hand

with a heart so good;

so beautiful…

Standing up

to people

twice your size

when you need to…

Letting me lick

the chocolate

from your lips

when there’s

only one piece…

You lace your

fingers in mine

when we walk;

warm, long fingers

holding tight,

and brush your head

up against my arm…

Your heart smiles

at rainbows,

and toads,

and good friends…

Those funny words

you say

when you

stub your toe,

and the look

on your face…

When I reach

for my handkerchief

at work

and find

your black panties

in my pocket…

You whisper,

and I lose

all train of thought,

or laugh at

my silly jokes…

I don’t know

how you do it,

how you make

the world melt away…

I’m not sure,

all I know is

I love everything about you…

What a beautiful piece of writing ... it's a poem with the gentlest, truest passion. I can almost feel myself there with you and your lucky lady, and, the picture illustrates your post wonderfully well.

There are so many memorable lines: 'Your heart smiles / at rainbows, / and toads, / and good friends�' = smiling at that... then: ' Those funny words / you say / when you / stub your toe, / and the look / on your face�' .. .. this reader thinks her ways, even to bare feet (as per pic') and your love, go wonderfully well together.

Thank you for sharing this almost intimate post .. going to rate it perfect. ( Well, just discovered I can't but, that doesn't stop me from stating that it is! )

Craig, I could sit and literally read you all day.....and I really mean it. I smiled when I read about 'the freckle'....the way she stubbed her toe... I seldom wear socks around the house, and I'm constantly stubbing my toes.....I even broke two of them...lol. Oh, and the 'black panties' in your pocket...........

Does love like you describe really exist forever? I mean, is it realistic to think we are capable of loving someone that passionately.....for eternity....? Or should we have several lovers in a lifetime, depending upon our situation/circumstances... I'm off track here, but I've been thinking about this a lot lately....

If you are writing about a specific woman in your life....what a very fortunate woman she is! And you to have her as you express not only her beauty and sensuality, but her kindness and generousity of spirit....

I want someone to see me this way..... All women want to be seen this way........

I concur with Emma....perfect....yet again, Dear Craig.

Fanciful and soft mbitions set adrift upon a purple skyline craig, your wife is drawn upon in a special way that renders reverence for true love. Masterfully written and art sculpted
