I wrote this 10 years ago, when I met the man who is now my husband. Portions of this were accepted for publishing this year on Poetry.com, (a little pat on my back...lol)
Towering, like the mountains
a formidable sight
awe-inspiring, unapproachable...
Goliath
I see, I sense, I am aware
a demanding prescence
bidding my attention...
Irresistible
I am drawn to this giant
a magnet to steel
a river to the sea...
Unstoppable
Close enough to touch
a matter of inches
equal to miles...
Fearsome
And the titan smiles
a fear dissolves
a friendship sparks...
Fearless
Gentle like a summers breeze
a soft touch
a pleasant smile...
Enigma
He spoke, I listened, I learned
a patient listener
a teacher...
Friend
