Linda Alice Fowler Poet Nonet

Am I in Love

Is the thought of love enough? ~ poet

I
feel flush
and blush with
each caress of
tenderness, whispered
nothings from eager lips
that lightly tread across dreams,
filling my heart with dire desire.
Am I in love with the thought of you?

Evelyn Judy Buehler April 9, 2025 at 12:31 PM The beginnings of love (or just infatuation), are considered in these engrossing lines. Well done! Congratulations on your win! :) Linda Alice Fowler April 9, 2025 at 1:48 PM Hello Evelyn. Thank you so much for reading and commenting. I appreciate your visits. :)

Alesia Leach April 8, 2025 at 5:06 PM This was so soft, so intimate--and yet that last line held the ache of uncertainty just under the surface. I love how the form built up slowly like a breath, then exhaled with that final question. Romantic, delicate, and quietly heartbreaking. Linda Alice Fowler April 9, 2025 at 5:45 AM Many thanks Alesia. Sweet comments! :)
