I love the discussions between smiling eyes and suggestive lips, the emotion that doesn't require words...the feelings transmitted through time and space...and you've captured it perfectly in these oh so romantic couplets...sigh material for sure, Jude...

How your thoughts sail on the wind
Making their home upon the mist

It seems your Twin has announced herself..as she holds in her thoughts the vibrance of lifetimes past and love eternal..
This is a keeper..love it!

Highly sentimentalized affection, praised, adored, and tenderly cared for. Really, one does not fall in love, one grows into love, so Distant Embrace is in its growing stage. To attempt more at this stage would be vain, I think...admiration in exchange for perhaps her closer embrace, yea, that's it...

Powerful, piercing and penetrating couplets which swirl and twirl like tumbling autumn leaves the unfathomable mysteries and paradoxes of unstated passion that is extra-sensorially perceived. This extra-special partnership will naturally recognise deep in the inner being the difference between presence and absence, pleasure and pain, sinkin and thinkin! A relationship such as this that just "is", without anything ever being forced, is a true gift and blessed are those who are able to experience it. You speak of pure chemical reaction here which is perhaps more than a seasonal heady brew! :)) Gentle tempest is in your Voice and the thunder of a quiet storm. Gorgeous! TY K xx
