_-BREATHE-_
Rise and fall
Her breath
Rise-and fall
Her chest
In the darkness, as she sleeps
I watch her silhouette
Her breast
Breathe out-breathe in
Fall, rise
Like the moment her being did
First fill my eyes
In love I did fall
Emotions intense did rise
Like a child on a seesaw
Lost in play
Up, down
Rise, fall
Love you, my darling
Breathe for me
I fall
Deep into sleep
Deep into love
I breathe

You're up late...early...
Thank you for the re-visit, Colin. You're always welcome
Darn, Sir Wayne, I just had to re-visit a Wayne Barrett classic as my poetic lullaby before I go to bed here at 3:04am and hopefully put me in the mood for deep sleep (REM) and erotic dreams so I wake up in the morning with a smile on my face and a tent in my bed and then drink neurotic coffee. (lol)
And then thank Uncle Wayne - and say man that was better than viagra.
Because these words here are like poetic Viagra. lol
Just listened to the Yardbirds and now the party is over

The painting is mine as well as a few others that I have used on my Hubs. The woman in the painting is my beautiful wife, Brandie.
Such a beatiful way of writing Wayne ! And a daughter to share with too ! Did you paint that picture ?

Thank you Dana, for the compliment on my poem, and my painting.
This is incredible. So very passionately beautiful. And that painting - I nearly cried looking at it. Gorgeous - the color scheme, the little details, the way she is positioned seems so perfectly imperfect... I adore this hub!

Thank you billybuc.
Some of the best poetry I have read manages to say a great deal with a minimum of words. You accomplished that here with this excellent piece of writing.
