The Touch (Loop Poetry)

by Sylvia   Nov 1, 2009


Hands so strong, yet so soft, a delicate touch
touch me, arouse the desire hidden deep within,
within my lonely soul, waiting for you to light the fire,
fire that smolders just beneath the surface of my skin.

Caresses sear feeling where there was none,
none until today when you reached out to fulfill,
fulfill the need to love you with abandonment once again,
again your hands created reality, a dream come true.

    :) I love your cool poems! I can't do them so I light up like a christmas tree when I read yours. You're like the master of different poetry styles. I'm so jealous. This was a short one but the emotions displayed were huge! I got such a warm and fuzzy feeling from this. I was cold so I had to read it a few times to stay warm lol. This poem really shows people how gifted you are as a poet. Lovely work dear. Glad you asked me to read this one. Nik

    To love someone and have that peson return that love is the most exhilerating feeling there is.
