Slow and Deep

~ a love poem ~

             

                           

Time stands in wonder

as the window of my soul opens to greet you

as one would the dawn…

 

a silent embrace of beauty blissfully captured

 

Your words fall upon me like petals from a wildflower

once dancing gracefully in a carefree breeze

now mine

not to hold

but to savor slowly

as if it were a sip of fine wine

or a kiss

lingering

like a breath held in a moonlit dream

 

My spirit smiles slow and deep

I love the images I get when I think all the words through. I read this piece over and over. It reminds me of love at first sight. Talking with someone we meet but secretly knowing they are a soul mate.
I love the word choice very delicate and descriptive!

Dear Jewel!

Did I find you in waters deep smiling in grace that paints your face. As always my soul tickles among your worded breath.

Regards,

I love how you expressed such feeling about words being spoken. Sometimes it is just a natural high in itself to hear a certain someone speak .... it can intoxicate you more than touch at times.

You expressed it beautifully as always.
