Silken Words. Poem by Fay Slimm

Silken Words.

Rating: 5.0


Bathed at first in milky dreams, creamy
Smooth flowed your silken words to me,
Drenching my heart, and without too
Much sweet-talk I, aware that you
Cared was emboldened with tender
Affection. No need to pretend
Shyness now. We feed from parts
Of the same fate, unseen but heart-
Felt, - a soul-love always waits, tight
Bound, but spacious enough to lightly
Lie in the mind. Silky soft words
Catch the spirit of love at first,
Then, with time words harden to stone,
Embed; themselves deeply, and honed
With devotion, become a part
Of the union of coupled hearts.

Twas not what was said, twas the lilt in the voice that makes our heart strings, truly rejoice the eyes cloud over, lost in the mist two lovers entwined, as gently they kissed Young love never grows old! beautiful poem Fay

This is a very lovely and heart touching write, Fay, as it is clearly written from the experience and joy of love. Even for those of us who are, shall we say 'more mature', it is love of another that makes life and romance worth while. Your fine poem beautifully expresses those feelings. Carl.
