Shy

I walk beside this goddesss for a while, as she looks away, I hide a secret smile. No fathoming,the reason, that placed me here right then. Hearts gone to racing, nervous twitters,hands shaking , once again. She's a beauty, long hair down to there , blown upon the breeze. Long legs walking, hand there swinging , to be held,with ease. If only ,there was a book, or guide, to teel me how. Should I take the plunge , a leap of faith, grab hold, even now. I reach,and she responds, interlaced fingers, holding tight. Shyness forgotten ,in all this world the simple act ,which feels just right.

This awesome write is Free Verse in "Form" ... don't forget to add something other than "I Don't Know" as this will keep your wonderful writing from being in a contest as this one surely deserves to be!! Hope you don't mind my suggestion, Jim ... smile ...

Truths make for folly pens, when fiction starts where folly ends. -Always Alexandra- You are a gifted writer Jim, I have enjoyed your poetry. My classes have ill afforded me the time to write comments as much as I would like to, Although I may not comment, never once feel that I do not read. God Bless you.
