This Blog is dedicated to Dr. Beth Crachiolo, now the chair of the English and Theatre Department of Berea College. Beth is truly a wonderful person, and one hell of a teacher! For whatever reason, she seems to believe in my aptitude as a writer and has made it perfectly clear, on more than one occasion, that to not write would be a waste. So I am trying to do something I've never attempted before. Starting today, April 20, 2010, I will try very hard to post at least one new poem a day for 1 year. I'm sure most of them will be utter crap, but you never know when the muse might strike. Please feel free to respond to any post at anytime, I value constructive comments.

Please

Please

touch me, feel me
strong arms with gentle hands
fondle, caress, embrace
hours and hours at a time
an eternity of endless moments
warm, secure, wanton
lost in perpetual bliss

touch me, hold me
reach into the darkness
bring back the fire to my soul
I’ve been cold far too long
alone in the night
holding pillows close

Touch me, Love me
Make me feel again
