The Body

The Body
  • ______________________________
  • Body, memorize not only
  •  how much you were cherished,
  • not only the touch on which you lay,
  • but also those wishes for you
  • that glowed clearly in the eyes,
  • and trembled in the tone of voice;
  • Some chance barrier made fruitless.
  • Now that all of them fit in to the past,
  • it almost seems as if you had yielded
  • to those desires—how they glowed,
  • remember, in the eyes gazing at you;
  • how they trembled in the voice,
  • for you, remember, body speaks by itself

this prose-poem is so rhythmic, and touched with wisdom. plus, it is colored by the mystique. Well written, and well done.

Dear Glenn,

I believe in Soul mates love as well as body mates love. Both are different, but one. I love that one.

Thanks for taking time to read my verses.

Love

Dear Nardine,

A touch, whether feminine, masculine, or Godly, or devilish, it is a touch. A touch to the soul is amazing. A touch on the body too..Thanks for reading my verse and commenting on it.

Love
