My Wonder of Wonders

A wonder of wonders
you emanate light
lovesick and deranged
I'm dazed by your sight

your eyes are beguiling
your lips tantalize
my body's a'quiver
for you hypnotize

your touch is like heaven
your kiss, my demise
my melting has started
you'requick to surmise

you know you have power
you relish each sigh
moving in closer
you press against thigh

I look up and wonder
how can I withstand
when all that I feel
is your traveling hand

you breathe in my hair
and whisper desire
knowing full well
you've ignited my fire

your lips ask the question
through passionate kiss
will I acquiesse
and give in to bliss?

with each soft caress
I swoon and I sway
my body your own
as you have your way

And as you lie dreaming
I lie still, awake
I look at your face
My heart throbbing with ache

You are so celestial
You are so divine
the love that we made
defies reason and time

A wonder of wonders
you are a delight
I lie there and long
for you through the night

You wake with the morning
and reach out for me
My heart starts to flutter
Our love's meant to be

Oh, wonder of wonders
my heart and my soul
It's here in your arms
that I am made whole.

Beautiful love poem. So surreal and gorgeous. Love this poem...wish I could experience something so similar to this. I long for feeling and to write about it some time. Love poems are a challenge that I adore. Lol -JWE

Remember dancing the Canuck-Canuck; Then terrible poems did have to chuck, Into a big maze; Burn up in blaze; Like Horn's are horrible and would suck.

Eileen, Love is a condition of the mind where the mind is out of condition. Others say that love is a heart attack.

That is very well put, Carlos. A lot of times love just doesn't make sense. It is what it is. Thanks for the visit.
