Just Come Closer

Come closer, just a little closer
break down the barriers and rise 
over the blindness where one can see
your bits of beauty silently eluding me

Shade the penciled lines highlighting hues
of black and white with rainbow eyes
a kaleidoscope decorating nature's view 
savoring every ounce of innocence true

Let your petals float in an essence of trust
leave lasting wafts of honey upon my lips
linger awhile letting our wanton ways exist
just come closer and I'll take the hurt away

Good Morning Tim. When turning to your page somehow the mouse went directly to this entry. I'm so glad it did. What can be said for such an entry. EVERYTHING. It is poetry with the poetic flair tone voice and words. It has it all including a title. Well done

Very soothing and comforting. I would love for my girl to have that kind of guy when She grows up...A guy who is always there to protect her, and take away her pain. . Lovely. A fave.
