Before I Leave

Before I leave Capture this moment Like the winds on the beach Let it waft with chilling breeze On the shores of your conscious Stirring a foam of nostalgia Ebbing back on the sea of this moment Before I leave Wrap me in your arms As a slime trail May the touch be imprinted on your skin Light of this moment, glitter with silvery touch Ages even after we part ways Before I leave Let me stay a little longer As a ripe fruit The love shared at the moment Gather scintillating colors Arousing fragrance Even after it fall on the ground of loneliness The birds may soar around it with admiration

Haggai, Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will get much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your verse. As for now, I will greet you with the same smile, others passed, when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your compositions. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you wish. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND" Hugs* SKAT"
