Distance is only a matter of thought (when)
Dreams are held by the hands they touch (where)
Space becomes the closeness of time we love so much

Closeness contrived
Benign bonding fragile
Untwined footprints fork
On fate.

		the closeness of fear
					          traces life’s boundaries.

Dear Friend

Hello, my dearest friend
Skip together till the end
Laughing by the river brooks
And searching through book nooks
Smiling until the end of time
Friendship ages like red wine

Premium Member Closeness Obscure

Compressed separation, reality unveiled
Suffocated freedom, identity confronted
Coalesced spaces, vision uncharmed
Memory inscription, chapter closed
Closeness obscure

Premium Member Closeness Distress Bt

Closeness invades
freedomless mind,
ego in mess.

In twined shadows
undefined self,
sense fails to find.

A one-off was Barnett Newman 
spectral closeness was his plan
He created the art of the zip*
two colours in a mural clip

A People Next Door

A people next door.
Nations for neighbours.
Closeness; that which can but rub.
Friction; sets aflame!

It is always so.
Who can avoid it?
One block, continent away
"Friends" safer to name!

Closeness

Closeness a ripple of chance in an ever changing pulse ~tides shift~ seasons shed her shape warm caresses disperse poetic forbearance rests outside the dearth

SMILE

TAKE TIME TO SMILE
IT GIVES YOU CLARITY OF MIND
TAKE TIME TO CARE 
IT MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER INSIDE

TAKE TIME TO LOVE
IT GIVES YOU SPECIAL POWERS 
TAKE TIME TO HUG
IT GIVES YOU CLOSENESS TO OTHERS

Premium Member Safe Or Not

Everyone deserves a hug.
A kiss, a warm touch.
Closeness and reassurance.

Love.

Even more so when you’re still radioactive.
We’ll get through this.

We’ll find a way.

Megan Markle is no doubt, spiffy.
        Her closeness to the Queen, iffy!
        In Hollywood, shops at only best malls.
        Dreaming she is the Monarch of us all.

Unity

Gracious beauty 
Inner power of God's precious love
We feel from above
This warm embrace
We feel gently touching our faces
Harnessing positive energy
God's frequency
You are my witness
I feel this closeness

Premium Member Dreams

My dreams, comes in half awake sleep stage, sometime brings ghostly past,
My lover's dream,  just the closeness, makes love remain in our hearts, 
I believe  I have a dream, of goals, sans dream, life is a void.

Eye Of The Storm

Seductive 
to many
Accepted 
by few

Its magnet
attracts
What closeness
eschews

A force
drawing nearer
What time
disarrays 

Whose moment
lives on
As years
— slip away

Prayer

When I was with her
Not to long ago
A closeness presented itself
Through Him, in Him...yes Sir!
A quiet room in her past
Away from the wiles of the world
Our capsule of hope within
A prayer of glue, it has been cast.

Lost Love

Once amazing and passionate
heart felt closeness
empty longing
painful yearning
to have your words
consume your presence
wish for yesturday
but this day is today
and even though I dont know how
I must forget you now

moon and stars above
warm summer night breeze blowing
arms wrapped around me
closeness makes my body weak
your breath, the warm breeze, I melt

God Space

Quite by chance,
I found You in the house of time.

Not knowing, nor understanding
the nature of closeness,
I kept pushing upon an open door.

I had to watch a clock die,
to comprehend
the silence between
tic and toc.

Premium Member As One Together
