Needle In The Haystack

... L.A where are you???

Needle In the Haystack

 

 

“Maybe I should go”, she said.

No, stay.

I love the way your words

live in the moment

and each comes with a smile.

 

               The moon smiles at times,

                its beams bounce

                and flow through my window,

                highlighting your silky skin

                as you lay in my bed.

 

                               “I should go now

                                before it gets too late”, she said

                                while cuddling closer in my chest.

                                Please stay, I love the way

                                your hair tickles my skin.

 

As the night moved toward dawn,

and the moon began to fade,

you went away, but

your scent remained on the sheets

and wrapped around my heart.

Author's Note

....thanks for reading... I first saw this formatting style in some of the poetry of Lyn Anderson, she use to post here at WC but I haven't seen any of her poems lately... anyway I wrote this and hope she likes it...

LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! This is the ultimate of simple tender intimacy. I could learn a thing or two from you about painting such a scene in the book I'm working on. In fact, I'm stealing the idea about saying one should go while acting like one who plans to stay! *wink! wink!* You are such a lover! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

"your love remained in the sheets/ wrapped around my heart"---
sweet lines...I was reading this humming an old Ides of March song...

I remember Lyn's style. Fits so perfectly here.
More of your beautifully inspired words.

Sweet, refined and romantic. The lingering pictures and scents stay in our minds. Love in the air and in the bed are powerful. You write with class.

When love is good, it's like this. When it's not.....let's not think about that and disrupt this pleasantness.
