Swaying

tenderly
on the breeze
these branches sway
locked together 
like lovers
in the embrace
of a close dance 

suddenly 
my thoughts
are adrift
again

Adrift again, romantic thoughts - the branches of a tree that are interlocked is such a beautiful way to describe two lovers. Brilliant poem Sandra, Hugs and blessings, Jennifer...

Beautiful image, my friend. How easily we can be swept away when we allow ourselves to be ~ Lovely <3
