Where are you at this moment, how does your skin feel
I hear your voice in my soul, as you ask questions
My heart sputters to a standstill when I consider you
I am humbled by your first ‘I love you’
I am your rib, prideful in my stature beside you
Fearful of all love entails as we touch spirits
In dreams I reach for you dancing in light
Bright fortunes lived day-by-day and by choice
Bedazzled by peaks of diamond brilliance
Sparkling distantly across moonlit waters
These are the landmarks of my dreamscape
As you call, come BabyGirl, join me
Walk through doors without fear
I am startled by you, your presence overwhelms
My reticence, natural and unnatural barriers fall
Laughter spills over and out, carried by the wind
Whispered secrets rustle grass as we watch shooting stars
Secret love names Honey Girl, Cara roll off your lips
I melt each time you whisper my eyes closing, sleep claiming me
As if the words themselves were warm honey on my soul
Your lips pressed against skin chilled by years of neglect
Leaves trails, melting crystal icicles into puddles at our feet
Where we stand beneath canopies of rainbows
You tell me, I will live for you I choose too
Mine My Heart, Choose

LOVELY poem, my friend. May your weekend be full of happy choices.
Hugs from Ecuador,
Kathy
Life is all about them, choices that is. We can only hope we make good ones and live joyfully.

This is more great poetry, Val! All your trials and traumas have finally given birth to a romantic muse; one that is sensitive and caring, but still strong and determined. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Alejandro, I am finding my voice and enjoying it. I have always written, just never shared. Now, I will write what I wish and share.
May your choices bring many more calm caressing days ahead 🙂
Peace,
Eric
Thank you Eric, I think the world spins around,
Your words flow beautifully. It’s like you’ve been through a storm and have reached the rainbow in the clearing. Like the light has been turned on and you are renewed, refreshed and revitalized. Romance lives again, Val! And it’s in your words.
It does and I have. The world is kind I think Monica. We will see where it goes.
This is really lovely writing Val,
I didn’t know that you wrote poetry
but you should add more, wow
I love the flow of this my dear friend.
Have a very sweet weekend and
later I will be back to read some of
your previous postings, I have been
gone far too long already me thinks?

There is an entire set of poetry my friend, just pull it up and enjoy. I have only just started adding it, I think you would enjoy it.
Thank you.
Do you have any spare writing genes I can borrow? A beautiful piece of poetry or is it prose? Doesn’t matter it’s still phemenonal.
Oh thank you so much. I have written poetry / prose for many years, since I was a young teen actually. Until now though I haven’t had the nerve to share it. I think I have been untethered from some of my fears / barriers recently and am ready to spread my wings. Soon, maybe more.
You seem to be feeling pretty good these days!
I am indeed. I have decided to embrace life, the world and whatever it throws at me. With that comes great risk and even greater reward. Ain’t life grand?
You shimmer, and sparkle, and s.i.z.z.l.e. I want to do the Happy Dance. 😛
Thank you Tess. Sizzle is good, isn’t it? Come on down to Texas, we can do a happy dance together, I like happy dancing.
We will see where this goes, maybe there will be some dancing in the future under starlight. 😉
Shine on Silver Moon! You have stars in your eyes. Cliches but can’t help it. ❤
Cliches sometimes Tess are the most appropriate, they weren’t created without reason.
~(*_~)~~ ❤
This is magnificent.
Thank you My, I am so pleased you like it. ❤
May you choose well. I hear the laughter in your voice. The picture is great – what a nice touch to your words. Have a good weekend, Val! Stay cool in all ways!
It is still cool up here in the north of Texas, but I am enjoying my 90’s.
My thanks, I am so grateful people are enjoying my poems. They are from my spirit. They are joyful.
Words so true to heart.. Valentine..
That they are Andy. Choices always come both ways. How we make them, that is the challenge, isn’t it?
It truly is, there’s no right way or wrong, just have to choose and make the best of it…
