A day Dream <br /> <br /> <br /> In my minds eye you match the goddess Aphrodite, <br />And I envy a man who <br />sits facing you-any man whatever- <br />listening from close by to the sweetness of your <br />voice as you talk, Thinking of- <br /> The- <br /> <br />The sweetness of your laughter: yes, that-I swear it- <br />sets the heart to shaking inside my breast, since <br />once I look at you for a moment, I can't <br />speak any longer, <br /> <br />but my tongue breaks down, and then all at once a <br />subtle fire races inside my skin, my <br />eyes can't see a thing and a whirring whistle <br />thrums at my hearing, <br /> <br />cold sweat covers me and a trembling takes <br />a hold of me all over: I'm greener than the <br />grass is and appear to myself to be little <br />short of dying. <br />And to think I’m only a few hours away from all these sensations <br />Just one touch and then if I survive the internal fire of desire <br />A gentle loving Kiss<br /><br />JAMES ROBERTS<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-day-dream-3/
