Last night,
While I lay sleeping
I felt you near.
Your body was Oh so soft and warm.
I felt your arms about me
Holding me so very, very tight.
My thoughts were
This has been our night.
In the after moon glow
I kissed you.
Butterfly kisses
On eyes so
Peacefully closed.
The morning sun
Filtered through the window.
Lightening up the colours
Of your golden hair.
When I awoke
I reached out for you
But you were not there.
My dream it had been
All so real.
I was sure
You were with me
All through the night.
For your scent
It still mesmerizes
My mind.
The warmth of you
Still clings to me
And the tenderness
Of your lips
I still feel
On my very own.
In the after moon glow
I kissed you.
Butterfly kisses
On eyes so
Peacefully closed.
Butterfly kisses
On eyes so
Peacefully closed.
Sammy
Please tell me what you think

Lovely, just lovely. a dreamy rendevouz.
gave me a contented sigh.
it's a blessing to have known love such as this.

Since love poetry tends to be my forte, I especially enjoyed this. Very tranquil and soothing and literally leaves the reader relaxed. Also draws attention to softer more weary and endearing style of passion which more so gets overlooked due to the popularity of the more aggressive type of passion that is seems to be more 'famous'. A good read.

Thank you Sam... It's been a long time since I've visited AP....and finding you here with your same great words is comforting to my soul. The world may have moved on and left me in its dust...but finding your wonderful words have not changed lightens my heart. ..Keep writing my friend. ...and living.

A beautifully bittersweet poem, Sammy. The love, the sadness and emotion are softly screaming within each line. It's awful to lose someone who is dear to us, so sad. But the memories can be wonderful, Sammy.
treasure them, they're yours for the keeping.
A superb write

Such Love Can Be Read In Each Word!!
I love the title and the way you have followed thru with it. This just pulled me in and I just felt so bad when you awaken alone. Sad but such a beautiful poem.
I like the background as it adds to and does not distact. 
Love was there.

The tenderness of your words pull at my heart and draw me into the warmth that flows down the page here. I feel enveloped in a mist oflove's sweet tranquility. This is simply divine Sammy. As always you take my breath away and leave me reluctant to walk away from the page.

Very tender indeed, but I think you could have experimented with some images, made the language less prosaic. Still, a good effort, and worth one round of applause from me.

Beautifully written Sammy. I love the title! it encompasses the thread that weaves throughout the whole of your poem. A tender write, brushing past as with a feather's touch, yet the meaning of your words holds such strong emotions that reach out and touch the very depths of the heart of your reader.
I have been patiently waiting for your next write to appear, you have not disappointed me my dear man.
I hope all is well with you
