fingers move
gliding through
extended time
floating on skin
tracing passion’s contour
no lines of separation
the glow of morning
no other sounds
but
heartbeats
and
slow breaths
deep
as each kiss shared
words fade into gentle touches
and soft kisses
rippling down the spine
there is nothing called time
again
lips meet
part
sharing even
the air they breathe
This is the fourth part of a series of poetry challenges between Jade (http://jadepaloma.wordpress.com/) and me. The whole idea behind it is to send a picture ( in this case by Vlad) to the other as inspiration (or visual muse, if you want to), and the other has to write a poem inspired by the image. Visit her site to see how she has responded to m third challenge photograph on her site.

This is definitely getting better and better! Ladies and gentlemen, Charlie wrote a love poem! And an awesome one at that… Blessed the woman loved by you. That is all I can say. You are among the few men who truly understand what love and passion are.
Wonderful! Great image.
