A Handkerchief Surrenders
If I can but see
those reaching arms before me,
feel flat against my chest
your welcoming breasts;
for me this would content.
If I could but feel
that dizzying quivering
your touch makes,
that for me would content.
If I can see
my own soul stirrings
in your beckoning eyes,
my contour
fitting your contour
perfectly,
I'd sigh
the perfect sigh.
So close we;
paper thin
the space between;
that all points of contact
blend
smooth skin
against smooth skin.
.
Give me your handkerchief;
wave it
before me;
and here is mine
in sweet
surrender,
buffeted
by that perfect breeze;
my
and your
deep breathing
brings.
mutually;
handkerchiefed.

I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings
Maya Angelou
Lovely and romantic, reminded me of John Donne's poems.
A well refined and lovely poem. The use of word 'Handkerchief ' gives it a bit Eastern touch.
aweeee sweet poem............well penned
