The Touch Of Soul

it is the touch of Soul
i desire
fingertip to fingertip
eye lash on eye lash
heartbeat against heartbeat
drawing the same
single breath
to know your fragrance
as my own

no need for words
when we touch like
this
all that needs
to be said
glistening pearls
on the string
of silent space
between our breath

my eyes shut
so a million eyes
may open in my heart
that see all
all as You
breath stopping beauty
that makes
my heart cry, kneel
then prostrate

singing love
singing praise
