BEAUTY OF CALM
Gazing at ice blue
tranquil waters.
Newly blossomed flowers
all around me.
Warm sun gracing
the smile on my face.
Joy and elation tingling
up and down
my spine.
A blanket
of green grass beneath
my naked feet.
Gentle caresses
tantalizing my longing body.
Love and contentment
in my heart's temple.
Sweet red wine
tickling down my
parched throat.
Soft jazz
whispering sweetly
in my ears.
Light breezes
fluttering against
my silken skin.
Laying in
his protective arms,
feeling no more fear
or uncertainty,
allowing myself
to take pleasure in
the beauty of calm.

I love this poem, Lisa  it is differnet from the one's you have been posting, isn't it wonderful to be in love  these ae my favorite sections: "Gazing at ice blue
tranquil waters.
Newly blossomed flowers
all around me.
Warm sun gracing
the smile on my face.
Joy and elation tingling
up and down
my spine.
A blanket
of green grass beneath

Love and contentment

oh how do we all long for this:
"Laying in
his protective arms,
feeling no more fear
or uncertainty,
allowing myself
to take pleasure in
the beauty of calm."
great write, Lisa!
