Coup de Foudre

Coup de Foudre

I read your words;

they flowed through every cell

in my wracked body.

Like electricity charging,

tingling from my finger tips,

to my toes.

A sensation enjoyed

with its reckless intention

and a deep desire for more.

I saw your picture,

caught my breath in gasps

and briefly dared hope.

When you walked through the door

time stood still

and I froze in awe.

I watched from afar

hanging on every word,

each inflection a sparked desire

to kiss your mouth

and I knew I had fallen.

falling in love with the words first---ah yes, i know this feeling...and then seeing the person and thinking, wow, those words came from this goddess?

and the bubble is not burst..the person is as real as her writing, as beautiful inside and out...

i want to kiss her page as well as her lips.

Thank you Jacob. You can tell quite a bit about someone from their writing, so long as they write with emotion.

Thank you Mia, inspired by a poet.

*sigh* J'adore amour, mon cher...

Beautifully written, John...I am so happy to see you so happy.

Kimmer you are a really good friend. Not been doing much on here this past week but will catch up on some of your stuff soon. Hope all is well in the sun of Florida.

[KAOlmsted]

You deserve happiness. Although, I would be lying if I said I would not miss all of those bitter poems about the evil ex *laugh* I suppose it will be love poetry from here on out ;-) And Florida is great; I love it here! Thank you.

I thought you'd run off for a moment there John, not read anything from you for a few days. I thought to myself, cause there was no one else around; that's not like my buddy John!
I liked this a lot, almost a hidden sexual (ish) theme; but I got more romance from it ~ see, knew you were a big softie really! (Scots are good at being big softies!)
Well written etc as always hun x

Hi Nicki, got a lot going on at the moment. New poet in my life. Am very busy and time and my head have not been in writing. Must get down to chapter eight of witches seed else folk will literally lose the plot.

Good to know you are still with us, I shall wait patiently for the next chapter(s) etc.
