She

She....

   she loved me

   she told me so

   she kissed me

And the world shook


The world shook away a new place

   chiseled from her whim

   the bones of the earth

   the salt of her passion

   (she held me)

   and loved smiled fine


By moonlight we walked

   in December

   her shadow fell across my soul....

   the wind called her name

   she was with me

   she


That night never ended

   since time stood still

   I did not age

   nor she


We strolled the lunar lamp

   the silver love

   and not a clock chimed

   not a soul stirred

   (but she)

Hi Keith, Is She the one? I love how you kept on saying, (SHE) I think it's very romantic when a man's heart beats with nothing else BUT SHE.... You are an amzing poet. Goodnight, my newest friend... XOX ~Linda

Hi Linda, you are so sweet..... Is She the one? She was the one, I'm afraid, but it's always how I feel about my girl --- now that I'm pretty much single I can look back and write how I felt more effectively sometimes, but most my writes are old flames, some are recent, but not 100 girls compares to the One (She)!) I wrote this piece in 2000
