I Value

The feeling of acceptance 
lack of self conscious 
and being drunk enough to dance
of an idea being created
feeling successful, esteem elated. 


The hug of a loved one 
which is never unwelcome 
laughing and thinking I won't stop
drinking tea when it's good and hot.


Getting lost in the world of a book
a smile at a strange with a second look
a comfortable silence 
a gentle kiss 
and simple things, 
things like this
writing
just thinking 
with plenty of time
to wonder what I like
and wonder what's mine.

Words Trying to be Senses



Words try to wrap
themselves around 
the senses 
pushing feelings
forward
signalling something
in the brain
mentally 
rather than
physically.


For from the written word alone
you can't smell a rose
touch silk
be shouted at
taste chocolate
you see the words themselves 
not the view


So forgive my attempts
at striking a match
to your brain
but I am trying
and maybe
something will spark.
