Only To Hold You Once More

Only to hold you once more 

I step to the forefront of thought and desire,
placing my face to the wind
Calling in echoes, now flames to the fire,
once again now to begin

Knowing this feeling that takes me away,
somewhere my heart it does sing
Forecasted sunshine my eyes it will play,
love is a wonderful thing

Can’t help believing that you feel it too,
beneath the heavens so free
All that I am I shall be that for you,
found in these moments to see

Hoping you smile when thinking of this,
praying this message to send
So you will know with the touch of your kiss,
my heart starts beating again

Now here I wait as I stare to the skies
filled with my thoughts ever pure
Wishing so softly in love filtered sighs
only to hold you once more

Good night Soupers

That face to the wind...that voice...the echo..I am sure it travelled beyond distance and reached to her wherever she was...in waiting to hold you too once again.Beautiful poetry .

Good Morning Chris. If I say anything it would only be repetition and meaningless. Honestly it would. As I do enjoy attached images at times allow me to say no image is needed here. Your words are the image totally and completely. You don't have to answer this however your work needs to be published. This entry is off the charts and is floating within the poetry galaxy. All poetic elements are attached and present. You have reached this reader. Enjoy the morning and day. So stunning...

When you sing that song for her she will want to hold you too and not just once more. I love this, it sings, it has that wonderful cadence and rhythm and musicality to it that is just you, my friend, and I love it.

So because I have never been there or out of the States it was hard for me to write anything.. And the web-sites paint a pretty picture of the land, beaches, wildlife, and cities. Why can we not all and I mean all follow and be guided by our Lord.

I guess because every one is different and every one sees things a little differently. It is easy to paint pretty pictures for those who have never been there. Thanks again my friend.

Love this romantic poem, Chris, well done. Thank you for reading my South Africa summary, truly didn't know what to write. There have been so many poems on this site of the environment and the effects of the country the fighting, killing, the government just stealing everything we send and not pass on to the people
