Have you felt a TOUCH?
A touch that stills your heart,
withholds your breath,
drops you to your knees?
Have you…?
Have you heard a VOICE?
A voice silencing words,
closing your mouth,
leaving you void of answer?
Have you…?
Have you tasted a LOVE?
A love that causes tears to
flow with unexplained
rivers of salty streams?
Have you…?
Have you seen a FACE?
A face that sends mind reaching
beyond it’s grasp,
invisible, yet unable to look past?
Have you…?
Have you…
felt this Touch?
heard this Voice?
tasted this Love?
seen this Face?
Have you…?

"invisible, yet unable to look past?" ...now that is provocative writing. This calls to each reader differently when taken personally, making for a great write in it's ability to cause contemplation for so many.

I dig.
This is actually somewhat inspiring, although lacking in material. I want more description of these ideas. -
Fantastic questions. I had a great sense that one has not fully lived until answering "yes" to these "have you" questions. This poem really made me think about each question, and the answer I would give. It has a strong undercurrent of deep spirituality as well.

Whew!
I felt this write. Those kind of experiences are so mind numbing and powerful. You describe them so vividly. Have to truly be a bit envious of someone who can say yes to those questions. Best of luck in the contest
