meagre words

how can I
capture
the sound of you
the force of you
the bright light
dazzling dream
come true of you
yet meagre words
in distant rooms
when winter frosts our hearts
I shall hear these waves again
I shall smell your sea
and even be
in life's yet darkest hours
content
within the
foment of your embrace

Peter, Peter, it is so lovely!

Jus the thought of a warm embrace
Can bring back the warmth of a summer day
The fragrance of the Water Lilly
The scent of a sweet breath
The memory of bygone days...

(((Hugs)))
Love,
Zoya
