your breath
drifts across my nostrils
soft as dandelion dreams,
floats past my ears
whispering mystic riddles,
touches my lips
with promised kisses,
lingers like laughter
o’er our tomorrow.

Pondering workshop advice from Garry Gottfriedson at Word on the Lake. “Love poems should use soft sounds,” and “never mention the word love…”

Thanks. I like this one a lot.
Great image…loved it 🙂
I’m glad!
Perfect fusion of form and feeling!
Thank you.
Shawn- Iove this poem’s layout! It’s beautifully written. -Mike
Thanks Mike. Ideally I’d like the ending of the left lines to be the beginning, one line below, of the next line, but that’s challenging in WordPress, so I settled for this variation. Glad you like it.
Man, WordPress is teh suck when it comes to layout. I’m right there with you.
