A Poem
There was hope and sadness and a message to reach for something deeper within, in this poem, much like life can be at times... when I went through difficult challenges a few years ago, I would escape to my sanctuary which was a park near where I lived, that was like a mini forest, and the trees will speak to me; I visited that park for over 20 years through my joys, sorrow and changes and would always sit right next to those trees. I will away grateful for the beauty of nature and its healing effect on me. Thanks for sharing your touching poem. I understood the message. I think.
Do You Know Me, Valentine?
Can you feel my caress
Deep within the hidden folds
Of your private dreams
Do you feel my breath
Like a feather upon your skin
Brushing you with my essence
Can you see my eyes
Focused upon your soul
Reflecting your insatiable hunger
Do you see my shadow
Wrapping you in the embrace
Of our sultry dance
Can you taste my kisses
Honey-sweet upon your lips
Awakening the need within you
Does the flavor of my skin
Ignite the low flame
That smolders within your loins
Can you smell my presence
As you inhale me into
The very heart of your being
Does my scent linger
On your lips and tongue
Like the swollen aroma of fine wine
Can you hear my sighs
Floating on the winds of time
Calling to you from beneath the sunrise
Do you hear my voice
Echoing through the ages
Haunting you from within your heart
Do you know me Valentine?
Or do you believe me to be an illusion
Escaped from your wildest dream
