I remember you, <br />Oh yes, I remember you <br />Well. <br />You had on a <br />Cashmere shawl <br />That sat well <br />With you, <br />So lazy and casual <br />It made you <br />Loveable, <br />And when your face <br />Came up to be <br />Kissed <br />I saw your neck <br />Stretched, <br />And I loved you <br />A little bit, <br /> <br />You were delightfully <br />Shy <br />You wouldn’t look <br />At me <br />Until with both hands <br />I cupped your fragile <br />Face <br />And made you look, <br />And then you <br />Kissed me <br />So gently, <br />With such feeling, <br />That I loved you <br />A little bit more. <br /> <br />You fitted <br />Along the <br />Length of me, <br />You belonged <br />At my side <br />And you were <br />Everything to me <br />And I tasted you. <br />So much <br />Woman, <br />So much, <br />That I loved you <br />A little bit more. <br /> <br />I only knew that <br />I did not want <br />To let you go, <br />So we loved <br />With the smell of the <br />Land close around <br />Us <br />And with the heat <br />Of the day upon <br />Us <br />And the air so full <br />Of promise, <br />That we both felt <br />We could stop breathing <br />And still live, <br />So I loved you <br />A little bit more. <br /> <br />The day was not <br />Endless <br />As we thought, <br />And so with evening <br />Beside us <br />We walked <br />Away <br />From that place, <br />Slowly, <br />We had lived a little, <br />So I loved you <br />A little bit more.<br /><br />Mike Tonkin<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-little-bit-more/
