Poem -

In Silence

I heard you
You cracked the silence
Came into the room
Casually opened the door
And walked in
I didn't expect you
In fact, you startled me
But you sat there 
Because it seemed you belonged
And it was the introduction 
To a new happy song
You sound like
A saxophone partnering 
Beautifully
With the mellifluence
Of black and white keys
Playing a sweet melody
Through me
I felt you
Your smile touched my soul
And awakened it
My soul ignited
Fluttering butterflies
Of all hues
And they happily
Danced around you
And you feel like
A welcomed feathery softness 
That my skin wants
To cuddle in
On rainy days
And do nothing
But sing praises
Without end
You feel so good
I consult the Bible
To find out if 
You just might be
The eleventh sin
I smelled you
Like the fragrance 
Of nature
Refreshing and new
Tugging at my smile
Stretching it wide
Until it reaches
The window of my eyes
You perfume my life
Exciting my nostrils subtly
Giving me eventual chills
Tickling my senses
And my inhale
Is profound 
Almost having a conversation 
Reassuring me
That God is so awesome 
Hmmmmmmmm
I see you
The shadow that He sent me
To be my bolt of energy
He planted you
To decorate my life
And you feed my eyes
With such beauty
I see even Mother Nature
Wants to hold hands with you 
Because your energy
Is as golden
As the sun
Yet you are so humble
Almost like you know
But you forgot
I see your stride
Bold and rich
Yet you have a heart
That is as sweet
The unforgettable nectar
Of ripe mangoes 
Against my summer thirst lips
And yes I do taste you
But my tongue
Grew so excited
It never communicated
With my brain 
What that was like
And so for now
That taste
Is my tongue's secret
And she won't reveal it
In fear 
That she might have to share 
What has pleased her so
I have learnt 
The excitement 
That is you 
And I can't wait for you 
To share space
With me again
That my senses
Might be assaulted
With such pleasures
And that you
Will make my soul
Do summersaults
In silence 
I am in silence 
Until then

Hi Jacklyn, this was such a burst of emotion ising all the five senses and more to express the love shared, and I absolutely enjoyed the realism in which you phrased your lines and used your comparisons. Superb piece I enjoyed.
