I Love You

I love you

afterwards,
when poems ooze off the contentment
of my skin
and your fire still smolders
inside my eyes,
I believe in God,
in the holy braille of touch
that lights an internal torch and gives rise
to the sky afire
I believe that a man and woman
are seeded in eternity
like flowers of an unknown origin,
pyramids of colour deeply rooted in a primordial
need to feel.
I believe the dead can dance
when angels make love
in the apples of our smile.

Dear Anna

Beautiful, just so lovely... "I believe in God, in the holy braille of touch".

I love the flavour of your words, how they blend together and flow off the tongue. All of your poem is lovely but I particularly like this part. I believe that a man and woman are seeded in eternity like flowers of an unknown origin, pyramids of colour deeply rooted in a primordial need to feel. Thanks for sharing Anna. Love Mand xxx
