Hushed Whispers

The very thought of your presence

 Fills my evening with fragrance

I am swept off my feet

By the naughty waves of ecstasy and romance

With a bouquet in my hand and eyes closed

 I am eagerly waiting as the sky wears shades of gray

Come soon and paint my world with bright hues

 For ....time is fleeting-all I can say

The day has been long

Do not make my waiting longer

My patience has been at breakeven

May plummet and fall asunder

Soaked in silken sighs

Silent versus simmer

My withered soul longs to exult

Drape me in hushed whispers

Plan every stroke carefully

Fragile and brittle is my being

Hold me gently like a newborn 

Chisel me deftly

Script kind words when you quill my story
