If You Close Your Eyes Poem by Practicing Poetess

If You Close Your Eyes

Rating: 5.0


If you close your eyes,
Can you still feel my hug?
Can you feel my imprint on you
From when we were warm and snug?

You phoned; asked if I was okay
I said, I'm missing you
We shared a laugh, concluded with
'Beans and Nachos'*, as we do.

While glad to hear your voice, I miss
Your loving arms around me
I was secure when I would feel
Your warmth and strength surround me.

Take care, Mi amor. When you return,
We'll both be so excited.
How sweet will be the day when we
Are finally reunited.

Thanks Becca for your appreciation of my short, simple little poem! I'd be hard-pressed to decide if reality or fantasy makes for better subject material. I suppose I'll let my readers decide that! :)

Warmness of love can be felt well still in condition of closing eyes. Every emotion comes automatically in screen of mind. Strength of love surrounds life. Loving arms protect from danger. An amazing and brilliant poem is very well penned...10
