In the fathomless night
I hear the whisper of my name,
Like a kiss against my ear.
And I know, I
know, it’s you.
*
Beneath the soft, familiar down
I feel sturdy, protective arms
Encircling my waist,
Pulling me tight, skin to skin,
And I know
*
I know it’s
You. You who holds
My heart. You who steadies
This racing soul that
Longs to settle in
In Your Hands.
Written a few years ago as an anniversary gift for my soon-to-be-husband.

You’re very welcome. I see so much poetry out there that makes no sense to me, poets using words that are way beyond my vocabulary and are so over complicated. I like simple poetry that comes from the heart, not from a thesaurus or writer’s dictionary.

Walt, I completely understand what you mean! Words should be used because they come naturally not out of a desire to impress someone else with a wide-ranged vocabulary.
