I Will Pour

I will pour 
mySelf 
into You
til breath
is done
flowing
thru your
giving
drawn 
to your yielding
my waterfall
smoothing stones
in widening streams
passing through
secrets
I’ve never seen
I will dance with you
long after
these legs are gone
and sing the words
of our favorite
songs
cleave canyons
in your 
sandstone
leave footprints
upon your soul
sink into
your heaving
a drunken traveler
beyond your reach
hiding in your 
slipstream
awash within
your breach
small moments
of unforgettable
meaning
that traverse
this illumined room
chanting
while angels
swoon
and etch desires
upon the reflection
of the moon
upon tussled sheets
and conjured dreams
lover’s themes
timeless scenes
enfolded sleep
cradled in a 
heartbeat.

Joseph,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
