Magic Carpet Ride

Magic Carpet Ride

A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto

Magic Carpet Ride


you touch me with your empathetic eyes
and the skin of my heart
warms to your tactile embrace

my soul flinches with pleasure
we mutually accept blame for love
gratefully floating with the consequence

It has been DECADES since I remember love/affection slowly melting me like this, so it would indeed be a Magic Carpet Ride, if it were to ever occur again! *wink! wink!* Happy New Year! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

A magic carpet ride could be the solution to almost anything
Currently, masks would be mandatory

"Well, you don't know what we can see ..."
and if there is anywhere we'd rather be I'm sure it would be anywhere but in the middle of this medically induced coma ...
at least it gives us the chance to think and write.

accepting blame for love and floating with the consequences ... lovely thought j.

I love magic carpets and magic carpet rides. The delicate pattern that comes from Persia, few other countries are woven laboriously by hand, many are women who pass the trade down. Your pen sir is woven with intricate questions and answers about life, love and human relationships. Let us ship it all to warm the homes and beautify the lives of others.

You are welcome sir.
What a great title this poem has. Not only that, it is such an uplifting little write. We all want a magic carpet.
