Beautiful Girl #1 Poem by Salvadore Ponce De Leon

Beautiful young woman #1

It glistens in the light of the fire
— Her radiant beauty.
The shimmer of her eyes, soothe my aching heart.
And her touch… and her kiss…
Oh, how I long for a gentle embrace with her.
I remember the time when our two bodies were just one.
Her hands were caressing my body.
We were one, attuned to the cosmic tide.
Her beauty was a gift only for me.
That gift is no longer mine.
