Laura Leiser Poet Tetractys

Touched By Love

Touch
                                                    softly
                                                  tenderly
                                               I long to feel
                              for I am lonely, old and neglected
                              starving for love as I wither inside
                                           weary eyes plead
                                               come closer
                                                  hold me
                                                     now
                                                    hope 
                                                 you cared
                                            warmth returns
                                          freed by your love
                         your touch transformed my sorrow into joy
