Melting Ice

Amanda F Sherrets 1988 (Fayetteville, Ar.)



-When he looks at me,
He sees,
A raging storm,
In the open seas.
-Swelling up,
In my blue-green eyes,
That captivate,
And hypnotize.
-He whispers secrets,
In my ear,
Dropping like petals,
Only i can hear.
-With a light touch,
He brushes my skin,
Tracing little circles,
With no beginning or end.
-The candlelight dances,
Across his face,
Glowing warm,
With soft embrace.
-With a kiss,
I ease his fears,
And brush away,
His icy tears.
-They float away,
On wings of dove,
At peace now,
With the man I love.
