Array ( [sid] => 40396 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Art Of Loving [time] => 2004-03-26 17:48:27 [hometext] => The Art Of Loving is my verse on the beauty of making love and not the lustful act most of us sometimes experience. Hopefully wrote in a beautiful way. [bodytext] => Needing only the mind to show the way,
to the many paths lovers take on any given day.
There are many sensations given as it's allowed to surround
two trembling bodies, what it reveals, can be profound.

Like one's breath is a breeze to each others skin,
it may become a strong wind as it rushes deep within.
Tidal waves of emotion, very much like the sea,
forces their presense, other times...caressing can be.

Like the sun that warms the earth each day,
the touch of one's hands ignites a fire as they play.
The mind now reveals much deeper thoughts,
as it exposes the desires that cannot be fought.

The art of loving is not all about passion, as we once thought.
It's about sharing who we are, and the dreams we've sought.
A gentle touch, a soft spoken word...that rings true,
is all that is asked, but experienced by few.

The words uttered, when the passion has won,
are as important as those spoken when the game had begun.
These words I once heard, as a single moment flew,
"It's not the sex I'll remember darling...I'll remember you."

Sweet words of love touch memories both bitter and sweet, love lingers on and so do your words. Thanks for sharing.
