This poem was written by  my very good friend Katherine Lockhart and I. We tried a format that ryhmes on the fist two lines of each stanza. Hope it works


Essence by M.A.Meddings and Katherine Lockhart

Thrills that couldn't happen again
I really couldn't remember when
I felt so much in love

Like a butterfly's fluttering wings,
My heart's voice with vibrato sings
An aria of love.

And the essential Joy in you
Is what beautifully takes me through
Any heart ache

The tenderness of our embrace
And your soft caress across my face
Enraptures my soul

Thus the beauty within you 
and the little things that you do 
keep you in my mind 

And like the waves upon the sea
your love swells deeply inside of me
thrilling me forever.

Nicely done both of you!I read this poem few hours ago but I still can't find the word to describe the feeling, the aftertaste of the poem. . . But oh well some feelings are better left unsaid :) But one thing is for sure I will always remember the feeling that this poem made me feel!Thank you both of you :)

Your words in this poem are so soft so walking on tip toes over morning clouds ... and still they tell of the one most strongest emotion in life - Love - the one thing that can heal wounded hearts and make us accept the most difficult situations in our lives .. and still this softness of love and the strength ... the one that has such impact on us as it sits beside us in life ... I love the way this poem tells of love in this strong and yet so soft way

your words blend together in this perfectly... a beautiful co write and a wonderful read this friday morning .....
