Come! Give me your thoughts that have wandered far and long <br />in the realm of green meadows and the daisies' song <br />of love-me, love-me-not petals that shed their tears <br />beneath the hope of your touch and the joy of years. <br /> <br />Hold me! Wrap me in love where the flowers abound; <br />and let us plant the sweetest roots on sacred ground, <br />where no waters divide and no mountains shall rise. <br />Let us build our Eden and make it paradise. <br /> <br />Let us catch the splendor of the indigo breeze <br />and make wine in the shade beneath bountiful trees. <br />In vineyards of pleasure and succulent delight, <br />let us slice open the moon and eat it tonight. <br /> <br />Let the light penetrate and give birth to the dream <br />as love-me, love-me petals float the merry stream. <br />Explosions of ecstasy cast a reflection <br />from the soul to the eyes of dear, sweet affection. <br /> <br />Come! Yours is the love that presses into my skin. <br />It is the wellspring of life that I revel in. <br />I am poised on the precipice, waiting to fall, <br />inflamed by the glory and wonder of it all. <br /> <br />Your love is my life; we are writ in heaven's scroll. <br />You steal all my senses, and you shudder my soul. <br />Come! I need nothing more from life other than this: <br />to end my journey on the silk waves of your kiss.<br /><br />Linda Marie Van Tassell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/affection-3/
