The morning after love
A gentle tender whisper
In the daybreak as we rose
Bagels and lox for you
Just cream cheese for me
Our favorite cafe` table
As we sipped a darkened brew
Smiles endlessly shining
Eyes singing delightfully
Dancing in their shadows
As they penetrated
My quiet composure
A somewhat pleasant stress
Washed over me
In my naivete
And I whispered
I love you...

Michelle, I really enjoyed this poem. Your poetry always seems to leave me in a state of serenity and comfort.
No one speaks like this anymore. You have such a gift Michele
Thanks ladies...
Lauren: I guess I am old school. I do. It's a very old memory though. :)
I won't be on much for the next couple of weeks as I am going on vacation in a couple of days and trying to get things in order before I leave.
I love your site. I have linked you to my blog. :) Keep it coming, it's wonderful!
Peace and Love,
Meagan

Lovely and memory envoking. Especially love the imagery of bagels & brew for breakfast! Great!
What a beautiful poem. Very romantic and full of the gentle thrill of love.
Hi Michel,
Very feminine lines, innocent and true.
I enjoyed reading this one. I could imagine my future wife saying these lines after making love. Uhm, with your permission of course.
