Notes About The Poem

                                               Art by ~ Escha Van den Bogerd

~*~
 

Through the distance,
allow me to weave my thoughts,
let them flow like a symphony

As the emotions glide,
and every word dances
with color and genuine love,
let it caress you, with elegance

But at this moment,
my heart feels slumber,
like a baby waiting to be held

~*~

Waiting To Be Held
