Also there's a lot of baggage that could be brought in from all the other things going on in life. Humor of course is a help with this, but it can only take the edge of fear off. It is still up to the beloved to decide to take the gamble.<br /><br />I hadn't considered a follow up - but that's a heck of a good idea!

First, because this is one of those poems that rolls off the tongue, so I didn't want to slow down... but just enjoy the sound and imagery in the words. <br /><br />After I did slow down, I was taken by the speaker--I couldn't quite tell how many there were, then I realized that in order for the first stanza to happen, the speaker or speakers have to be close enough to each other (or herself) to know everything that goes on in the subject's heart. So they are probably the same, or at least very empathic. <br /><br />I'm attracted to the safety the speaker in the last stanza offers... And cautious, because the entire poem sings of a mildly spooked rhythm... Just like the vibe that comes from someone who is terrified to death, but is resourceful enough to use humor or movement to mask their apprehension. <br /><br />I hope you write a follow up to this poem. For I would really love to know if the subject accepts the kiss...Magaly Guerrerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18295455026184103230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659263493425330078.post-72813685593915802822015-04-21T09:54:33.884-04:002015-04-21T09:54:33.884-04:00The funny thing is this is one of the poems I had ...The funny thing is this is one of the poems I had written out early (if a topic moved me, I'd make sure to jot down all the thoughts into a rough draft and save the editing for the day of the release). I had gotten this one down and then read yours. Great minds think alike! Can't wait to see your response. :)Rommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11810721515248103148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659263493425330078.post-34900322823142647592015-04-21T09:32:01.781-04:002015-04-21T09:32:01.781-04:00Barefoot is my favorite way!
