Touch

Feel
My heart
Beating fast
For you, my love,
When I touch
Your warm
Hands

My response to Jane Dougherty’s poetry challenge: to write a sept (seven-line poem in a 1-2-3-4-3-2-1 syllable pattern) with the theme “hands”. Better late than never, right? Thanks for the prompt, Jane!

    Unexpected arrivals are often the most appreciated 🙂

        I’ll probably do a sept again since people seemed to like it. If you’re up for a cinquain, it’s butterfly cinquain this week 🙂
