The Sweet Scent of Your Soul

You speak my name a tone that chimes so sweet, Then gently stroke my heartstrings and you can. You sing the song of love when our eyes meet, I feel the music flow through you sweet man. You take my hand and gently kiss my palm, Then place it lovingly upon your cheek. You know my moods, you have become my calm, Your arm around my shoulder makes me weak. Your love for me, it rushes through each bone, You fill me up and make me my best whole. I love to hear your heart beat its sweet tone, You've shown to me, the sweet scent of your soul. 10.13.2014 Anthony Slausen’s Contest: The Scent of your Soul

This is so gorgeous, dear. Great rhythm to it as well as the words. I hope you do splendidly in the contest. I saw your note to me at another poet's poem. I do not share your opinion on that person you were supporting. I have my reasons, dearie. Anyway, you just keep being the sweetheart that you are!!

Lets be practical and realistic and cut all of the BS. This poem is way above anything I could ever write. There is enough feeling in it for 50 poems combined. Not only that it is enjoyable and a pleasure to read without having a Southern accent. Not only that it is endearing, as well as being well worth reading. Jim Horn, Bolivia, NC.
