I Wonder
I wonder what you're wearing
The color of your eyes
The cut of your hair
I see you in the words you write
Words which read as the breath of life
And awaken me to wonder
At the beauty they create
Gazing at you
The warmth of your cheek caressed within my hand
Perhaps a scattering of light freckles smile beneath your eyes
Eyes which speak searchingly to mine
As I draw you near
For I would touch you as your words touch me
As the soft velvet of a kiss
Kiss me
That I might taste your magic
For a kiss is a timeless place where forever dreams
And all else falls away
Save you
For I would know truths no words could tell
Spoken only in your eyes
And sealed within a kiss
The color of your eyes
The cut of your hair
I see you in the words you write
Words which read as the breath of life
And awaken me to wonder
At the beauty they create
Gazing at you
The warmth of your cheek caressed within my hand
Perhaps a scattering of light freckles smile beneath your eyes
Eyes which speak searchingly to mine
As I draw you near
For I would touch you as your words touch me
As the soft velvet of a kiss
Kiss me
That I might taste your magic
For a kiss is a timeless place where forever dreams
And all else falls away
Save you
For I would know truths no words could tell
Spoken only in your eyes
And sealed within a kiss

Dear AJ,
You don’t disappoint in your wonderful ability to pen a poem like Byron! This is lush with romance. Of course it took everything I had not to tell you I’m wearing my fuzzy robe and puffy slippers, my hair is in rollers and who knows what color my eyes are they’re so bloodshot from no sleep. But I’ll keep those thoughts to myself. 🥸
“ For I would touch you as your words touch me
As the soft velvet of a kiss” oh my god! Lovely write as per. A beautiful valentines gift for this lucky gal. H🌷

Now you tempt me too much! For the robe must come off before one dresses, with hair falling soft once rollers are gone.
Just kidding, kinda, sorta! :D
Thank you for the compliment ~

Wow! Aj, your writing is the pinnacle of romantic. I melt into a puddle of ... (stopping there lol) reading your words... Your appreciation for feminine beauty and ability to express that in words is absolutely the most beautiful. Such an absolutely gorgeous poem for Valentine's day. Just beautiful... I am at a loss for words.

You, my dear, are much too kind. I'm just an average Joe who scribbles words on occasion about the art which is woman. ;')
