The Things I Love

Contributed by Dragynkyn on Friday, 28th May 2004 @ 11:21:23 AM in AEST
Topic: PoemsonBeauty

The slow deep-seated warmth on bones
The redness of deep blood velvet red
The heady smell of still-wet ink
The smooth fresh whiteness of a blank page
The crisp juicy bite of apple on the tongue
The feel of the satiny silky skin of water
The groove deep-worn in a pillow clasped tight
The sound of poetry and laughter on the wind
The all-encompassing embrace of often washed sheets
The twinkle of a smile in a friend's eye
The dizzying feeling of taking words to heart
The softness of a breath upon a cheek
The wind wildly sweeping down to touch and caress
The comfort of a sigh released for peace
The love which whirs in another's eyes
The deep dark brownness of a reflected eye
The shapes and patterns of letters and paragraphs
The sound of words long unspoken
The bittersweet taste of darkest chocolate
The loneliness of the night dappled with stars
The milky coolness of carefully crafted silver
The taste of air after the anticipated quenching rain
The living roughness of an old tree's bark
The caress of sun's warmth and the kiss of waves
The undoubting unconditional love of a child
The steady pressure of a dozing head upon a shoulder
The sudden surprise of strangers' smiles
The long rows of the spines of books
The way they open to a favored page and crack there
The soft edges of dreams fading to waking
The warm comfort of sleep's embrace
For all these I am thankful
For all these I have loved

Full marks from me you have certainly taken us all for a journey through your school day.
One suggestion though why not try to vary the beginnings of each line you start off each time with THE it makes it difficult to read.
Keep smiling
