What Lies Between Us

Daybreak arose when night had passed Lush meadows mantled with drops of dew Craving, I eagerly broke the morning fast and eagerly reached my arms out for you Our hunger sated, but we lingered abed Once again, we were starving to death What lies between us are silken threads of love and whispers with sighing breath

Very appealing thoughts Lin, reminds me of a song I wrote a while back, Between the whispers and the sighs...this is reminiscent of that...only I like yours better!

I'm sure your lyrics far surpass my verses. Now, I'll have to read your poem. Thanks, John.

A beautiful way to start any day in my opinion. Your words are like a warm blanket on a cold day, gently caressing my eyes and thoughts. Beautifully done Lin.

It seems we both had need of a blanket this morning. With gratitude for your thoughts...I thank you, Chris.
