Live Laugh Love (Caressed By Moonlight)

Listening to your heartbeat
I lie with my head on your chest 
Voile curtains softly billowing in the breeze from the open window
Ecstasy still flowing through our veins 

Lately we have become much closer
A true friendship now mingles with physical attraction
Unimpaired by our past lives
Gently, you curl your arm around me as you sleep
How truly happy that makes me feel

Light from a waxing moon creeps in
Over your sleeping form
Verifying my adoration of you
Even now, I can’t believe how lucky I am to have a life so full of love and laughter.


 



**Too bad it's not autobiographical ;)

Hey did it not make it into the contest in time, Sharon? I don't see any congrats on it and my gosh, it is one of the best ones of all. I know you have been having problems getting your poems to stay entered into contests. Is this happening to you still??? Please let me know! Luv, Andrea

This is the most beautiful one I have seen, Sharon. So pretty. ONe thing I heard about acrostics, the title should be the same as the words spelled out, but I doubt people pay attention to that. LUv, Andrea
