Trembling...

It doesn't take a chill to make me shiver
    It can happen when I'm not prepared
        A thing of beauty can make me quiver
           Tiny goosebumps for me aren't rare
               Glorious music can do the trick
                    A lovely sunset can bring the tears
                         Most of all, what makes me tremble
                            Your slightest touch when you are here...

Loved it all, the shape, the size, the quality, the simplicity, the rhytm, and the form...Raul

Carrie, I can really relate to this. I often get chills reading poetry or listening to music. I can tell you are a very passionate person. This is a lovely poem. Love, Carolyn

Cool work yourself; clearly another hopeless Romantic like me! Just wanted to say that yours was the fastest comment I've ever received; I submitted that poem literally minutes ago. Glad you liked. Let me ask a favor of you, if I may: if you're any better at contacting the rest of the Soupers out there than I am, and you probably are; I've never been able to get my article feature here to work right - please tell the folks out there I said a Big Thanks for all the good comments they've made!
