Gentle

Soft as a whisper

Lights turned down

All the voices gone

Touching a cloud of heaven

Holding me close

A free air

Wings flutter 

Tongues ravish 

Skin deep as innocently placed

A sunshine

Cheeks sink 

Eyes widen in belief

The white chiffon

untied bows 

Hair golden brown

On summer breeze 

Window open 

Vision of crispy sand

No paris or Rome

A home

[terry smith]

i would take some sand & turn it to glass so i could look through it and think of you.

[Nisreen]

lol .......... you got the wrong idea about Arabia ..... lol to see sand you have to drive to the dessert which is stunning ..... camping is gorgeous ...... stunning

[terry smith]

I know it is not all sand ...lol but i cannot make glass from grass..:)

[Nisreen]

The middle east is so rich with culture and so much mystery
its humble .... very easy to connect with ......... i miss egypt

[Nisreen]

[terry smith]

[Nisreen]

So mad men and listen to the music freaking amazing .... i say men knew how to treat ladies back then .... minus the cheating of course lol

[terry smith]

manners is a lost art form...just like showing a woman respect....two things my mother would never let me leave the house without.:)

[Nisreen]

well ... god bless her for you teaching you so .....

[terry smith]

:)....................

[Nisreen]

I am never gonna be with someone ..... your girlfriend must be happy with all this :)

[terry smith]

i am single...or did you forget.

[Nisreen]

What happened to your girl ........ i remember we talked about that ......

[terry smith]

long painful story....we are no longer together

[Nisreen]

Thats not right .............................. you have to keep trying ............ love is all about never giving up on someone that matters to you

[Nisreen]

i am afraid i am still in love with the same man ........... i will never get over him ......... he is my poems my words my air .......... i dont mind dying this way ........ i cant stop loving him and i dont want to ..... lol ..... he is happiness

[terry smith]

I know for you that is true....mine has moved on with another...so must I

[Nisreen]

that sucks ... i am afraid even if he does .... i cant undo how much i love him ...... so i am screwed lol ..... i wish i could cook right now lol

[terry smith]

if i lived closer i would cook for you

[Nisreen]

lol ..... i would send your food to your girl
so she can realize how wrong she is ...........

[Nisreen]

you would be so surprised i thought my class would be mostly girls and it was tons of guys and to see how caring men could be about food .... and they all must have pretty happy girlfriends .... if my man cooks for me ... i would be floored thats gorgeous

You've presented a somewhat disconnected flow of vivid sensory observations (for me) . . . not feeling it come together as a cohesive statement, making me feel "HOME!" so much. But I very much applaud this poem for offering fresh, unusual details, instead of the old worn-out ideas.

[Nisreen]

Thanks ......................

-- ohhhhh... -- i struggle to describe that indescribable feeling of home... but you've unleashed it with magical images... -- i marvel at your skills and sensitivity and they inspire me to write better... :)

[Nisreen]

Thank you Serah
