~The River~ © 8-19-97 Lori
You walked into my life with a smile placed upon your lips;
the feeling racing through my body;
like a stream running down the mountain side;
you on one side of the stream and me on the other;
I watch in wonder of the words that come from them lips;
so gently they flow; the smile never leaving;
I can see the reflection of the water coming from your eyes;
your words blend with the stream;
like the sound of music sent from heaven;
wanting to get closer; but the stream wont sanction;
you consider crossing the stream; but the stream is so immense;
wanting to cross to feel them lips upon yours;
to see the reflection of your eyes in mine;
to place my hand upon your chest to feel the heart beating;
but knowing one day we will climb that mountain and find the stream ending;
your smile comes to my lips;
