Two Halves of the Whole

Secret kisses in the dark make endless night seem bright;
Endless kisses from the heart, my mind and soul's delight.

I alone know the gift you bring of rose-resplendent light;
Alone I know the things you bring, that bring my smiles to life.

Soul-safe in your arms, and this darkness sinks from sight;
Holding you, caressing you, our spirits one in flight.

The colours you bring, hues of rhodonite and rubellite;
The songs you sing, soothing vibrations through indigo night.

A loving word, a tender touch, colours burst and ignite;
A look, a smile, a certain style, I crave with all my might.

A love inspired by the sensual words that you write;
Loving you could mean, to me, there is no wrong or right.

With our words combined poetic vision takes flight;
With our words entwined lovers' hearts unite.

The warmth you bring, a click, a love that feels so right;
The love you give, a click, comforts me every night.

Sending messages with my keys, hoping to excite;
Receiving messages from your keys, our hearts unite

When you touch me in tranquil amethyst twilight;
When moonlight touches us in the grey and blue of night.




Co- writen for the contest with John H Loving III and Charlotte Puddifoot

Dear John, is this a collaboration for the contest? It is positively beautiful, my friend. I especially love the last verse -- what an image! I am out of town until Wednesday, but wanted to say hi. Love you and your poetry, Carolyn

Very poetic, romantic, and emotive work..Enjoyed reading this morn.So glad that I chose this one..If for a contest, good luck with this one..Thanks for stopping by..Suet is something that I buy for the birds to eat...It is a mixture of fat of some kind and bird seed..I guess it is lard..Sometimes I will roll a pinecone in peanut butter then roll in seed and hang outside where I can watch the birds enjoy eating from the pinecone treat..Sara
