Author's Notes: "Thinking of You" is my first real foray into open phrase free verse writing. I plan to do some more of these writes on focused themes from time to time as I continue to experiment with different vehicles and means of poetic expression. Also, I wish in particular to dedicate this write, this poem, to my very good friend and Irish colleague, "Liam Mcdaid." Liam and I have already collaborated on a number of shared free verse writes that have been posted over these last few weeks on PoetrySoup. And so, it is in Liam's honor that I dedicate this poem to him for the grandness of his character, the passion of his feeling for poetry, and his wit and laughter in making all of this a lot of fun to do!! And so Liam, this one's for You!! And be sure to wash down your celebration with some Irish . . . Mate!! Spill Ink!! Cheers, Gary. (Gary Bateman - October 20, 2014) (Free Verse poetic format)

Giving into emotions wildly
passionate in thought but softly
thinking realizing meaning
dreaming during an evening walk
listening to the tone of my heart
conquering shyness and pity
kissing the lips of nature so golden
A mounting trail of grief and tears
real and salted in a wound so fresh
finding beauty so pure and honest
forgiving all in a moment’s flash
finding love again so sweet so pure
eyes moist crying soft part of the soul
running fingers through hair so soft
I seek your presence always
intense in feeling
hopeful in intent
always playful always
sweetly kissing your lips
gazing deeply into your eyes
touching holding feeling
My love is present forever
this soul moved and cherishing
golden tear drops emotions pure
dry their splashes laughter comes
living each moment to fullest pitch
saying only “Hi” and never goodbye
full of meaning most wondrous true
How precious our love is always
ancient treasures no greater nor grander
wishing always everlasting memory
wanting the best against all odds
seizing the day making all joyful
crying and forgiving always
making our spirits our souls one
Walking in that sweet summer wind
all cares away emotions present
embracing warmly and often
caressing in the moist warm wind
kissing most divinely and often
finding our destiny and love so true
crying tear drops rejoicing in life
Angels and happiness pervade our thoughts
the light the intensity the feeling so
consummating our oneness whole
dreams fulfilled passion rewarded
our hearts beat now as one as one
under Mother Nature’s umbrella
passion love emotion feeling forever
