LIKE WATER


I want to hold
your life in my hands -

Like water.

I want to feel you
trickle through my fingers,

To scoop you up
and splash you on my face.

I want to taste your coolness
on the tip of my tongue;

I want to drink you,
lap you up,
for you to quench my thirst.

I want to swim in you,
lose myself in you,

To be drunk
with and by you -

Like water.

"Like Water" manages to capture most everything a passionate love ought be, Kate. Reminds me of a country song that absolutely engaged me in a similar way. Think it was called "Like Holy Water." Water attracts me more than any of the other elements. Matter of fact, I can't imagine heaven without water. Loved this poem, Dawn

My dearest Kate... though a bit of a slow learner, I now am fully aware that when I click to read you, I prepare myself: you render me speechless. Love poems have been around even longer than I (imagine that!) and are packed to the rafters in AD... then there's this one.

I must believe that writers, good ones, strive to say "it" as it's never been said, to quietly or loudly stun a reader and bring her/him back for more. You make it look effortless, a star alone, that shines with no need of another. Oh, I know I go on and on... but this poem (already in my library) is what the rest of us strive for. I read it 3 times, proving that I am self-indulgent and you are dessert for the head. When I read this kind of metaphoric genius, I get giddy. Sigh. kontemplatin' katy xox
