You touch me without any use of the hands
Accept me without the outrageous demands
Throw a dream in the air just to see where it lands
Hug my soul with your daily embrace
You look at my darkness without showing fear
Sift through all the garbage to keep my feet clear
Tell me truths I may think I'm not ready to hear
Hug my soul with your daily embrace
You put love in my heart without snapping at strings
Let me soar through the air with a flap of your wings
Have me feel like I'm walking the valley of kings
Hug my soul with your daily embrace
You enchant me without any use of a spell
Quench my thirst with a free go on your wishing well
March your heavenly beauty straight into my hell
Hug my soul with your daily embrace
You have opened a door without slamming it shut
Chased the terrors who ripped out a hole in my gut
Slipped right under my skin without making a cut
Hugged my soul with your daily embrace

Thank you Christina
Such encouragement can't help but inspire
Extremely grateful as always
I may have mentioned somewhere that I'm not very fond of love poetry generally. But this was of a different order - not only a smooth disciplined write structurally, but bright, energetic and free of mawkish sentiment.
Good 'un, Peto.
You humble me Dave
Many thanks for such a wonderful comment
Much obliged
Truly beautiful.
You sir are a gent
Many thanks
I cannot say enough about this! I love the way I can instantly see pictures in my mind like a sideshow of everything you describe. It's beautifully yet simply put. Not too over explained (I tend to do that but I'm working on it). But yet I can still feel the power behind the sentiment. Love this!
Great to see you Niki
I truly appreciate such support
