Forever by Kate DemereeI am
I am The steamy spray Of the shower Landing in the sweet Smelling softness Of your hair Sliding over your forehead Lingering Upon your lips Gathering momentum Running down your chest Stopping for a moment At your belly button I journey on To the south Resting At your groin Sliding Smoothly Down your thigh Knee, Calf Landing At your feet Flowing into The earth
The wind Blowing softly Bringing a spring breeze To kiss your cheek
The cloud In the sky Above you
The mist Of the fog That rolls At your feet Wraps itself Around your form Caresses you With a touch Moist and Warm.
The cloud In your sky Thunder That claps As your Lightening form Flashes by
The ocean Washing up Onto your sandy shore Lapping softly Flowing away once more
I am Forever Returning To you

Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 06/09/09 at 12:30 PM what can compete with this notion of warmth and mist
and this closing stanza, lovely of lovelies, I am forever returning to you? |
