A Walk in the Woods



We meet in the woods, you and I
A chance encounter; An afternoon stroll
Two souls;seperate wanting,but common desires
Your longing for home and country
My quest for truth and meaning;
A search unending We seek solace in the woods
Cautious, unsure we reach out for love
Our hearts longing; we embrace desire
A chance to trust and care; We walk together
We talk of simple things; Of times gone by
Adjusting our walls, doors open to feelings
Noticing, but not, our hands touch and hold
Our eyes delight in each other's intensity
We walk and ponder each other's mysteries
Of what is and what could have been
We smile alot, but understand the pain
We seek assurance through our senses
We relax and enjoy each other's passions
We share secrets and become friends
We become more....
