*** This is the 1st poem I entered on Poetry Soup. The date was August 14, 2018. I do love this poem and always will, in a way it's a tribute to my soul. Poetry Soup is awesome... I feel SO fortunate to have found a community of poets where I feel I belong. Home at last.

Listen to poem:

I want someone who likes that I talk to Buddha I love waterlilies I eat with chopsticks in blue Chinese dishes I want someone who respects my silences who recognizes the mysteries within me who talks in poetry who feels blessed to have found me who brings me coffee in bed and kisses my toes whose ambition is my happiness who adores me and lets me return it I want someone who knows how to touch me how to talk to me how to drench me in tenderness and when to light which candles I want to be loved Like only you knew how to love me AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on March 10, 2022 for contest THE THROWBACK CHALLENGE sponsored by NATASHA L SCRAGG - RANKED 3RD on August 14, 2017 for contest STANDARD NO.30 sponsored by BRIAN STRAND - RANKED 3RD and on August 30, 2017 for contest FIRST POEM sponsored by KIM RODRIGUES - RANKED 4TH

haha, I just saw a note you left me from first time I saw this poem (about liking my toes kissed?) Unfortunately not true. My toes are not attractive and I would feel odd having someone kiss them. I'm a "Handsies" girl.
