Group Write On Same topic


Hello Journal Land. Seems its time to do another group write like we did once before. It brought a lot of writers out of our closets and helped with new interaction within Journal Land. This time the topic to write on is:

You Touch My Heart When You ......

Sample:

You touch my heart
each time you smile
when you glance my way
I feel in great style.

You touch me when
each time I hear you say
You love me more and more
each blessed day.

You thrill me no end
when you kiss me each day
you touch my heart
when you love me that way.

Del Cano

Simple but you get the idea.

Write those lovely poems, post it in your journal, and drop a link in Spencer's Place  so we can see what everyone came up with!  Not a poet?  Well, give it a try anyway...  who knows, ya might find your calling.   
Good luck to all. 

Lets set a deadline of 2 weeks to Aug 17 so if its successful we can change topics.

Hello J Landers

The time is getting close to end the present group write on the same topic which will end at the end of day on Wednesday August 17. Anyone who planned to but hasn't already posted their link on the "You Touched My Heart" title your time is running out. You know we are all anxious to read those gems being posted. Come closer now, I'm letting you in on a little secret. Tina, is anxious to get started on the next title which she selected "MY WORLD AS I KNEW IT"  which will start promptly following this one and run for two weeks.

Just love reading all these creations on the same subject and I love sharing verse.

Spencer

You touch my heart when you open your's to listen
to the things that are not said, and you silently
hear the heart that, to you, has been so freely given.

You touch my heart when your's gently pours
into my soul with tenderness i know is your's
and gingerly kisses my pain until it hurts no more.

You touched my heart...

You touched my heart when you said you loved me the first time.
It wasn't with your voice but with your words typed online.

You touched my heart when you said you would love me forever.
Little did I know forever would come so soon ... or that I would spend
many, many, nights crying and cursing you.

In my heart I knew it was the right thing to do, as with both belonged to others and cheating  was a risky avenue. Oh sure we talked about it, wrote about it and even dreamed about it ... but then again, if we couldn't have each other forever ... it had to end.

You touched my heart, my soul and my mind.
Another love like you I will never find.

Our love was so powerful and undeniably strong. With nobody had I ever felt such a bond.

You touched my heart with so much joy. I wouldn't trade that for anything...not even to erase my pain. If I were to erase my pain then I'd would have to erase you ... and that is something I could never do.

I keep my memories of you buried deep inside my heart and pull them out when I think I can enjoy them without falling apart. Sometimes they make me smile and other times they make me cry.

I once said my last thoughts on this earth would be of you, and that remains true. I love you still ... and will until the day I die...

You touched my heart.

You touch my heart
with your soul
and caress my body
with your mind.

You feel my pain
with your all,
and openly express
you are here
for all time.

You touch my heart
with your pressence,
and see my soul
through hauntingly beautiful eyes.

You feel me eternally
through love alone,
but nothing is as great
as this pain within,
For you can never truly be mine.

You know something? You could probably make a poem, using mostly (if not only) the titles for your other poems. *Heehee* Sorry, that thought popped into my head and was screaming to be said. :) And for all reading, YES I KNOW I AM CRAZEY. Did you know that everyone else is too? *heehee* (if you cant tell, i'm in one of my "weird" moods LOL) but seriously, how do you know i'm not normal and the rest of the world is crazy? and who knows if teh chicken or the egg came first? and who cares? we got chickens and eggs now, dont we? Sorry, i'm rambling again. *heehee*

*MUAH*

You touched my heart
like the warm sun
And sweet gentle breeze
When you kissed me
Love was made free
you touched my soul
Between the crisp sheets
And made me whole
And my heart complete
When I was sold
To someone so sweet
To someone so unique
Passion began to unfold
When you entered me
All love Mysteries were told
All erotic fantasy's I now behold

You touch my heart,

in a million ways.

You give my life reason,

make me smile everyday.

The memories we share,

Have been etched in my heart.

The day we met was destiny,

a bond was formed from the start.

We have shared both joy and sorrow,

You are my rock...my boulder.

Together we have laughed and cried,

your always there to lend a shoulder.

You have touched my heart,

with the compassion you hold.

You're caring and loving,

with a heart of gold.

You Touched My Heart


You somehow touched me
though miles away from here
an ocean and mountains away
still you seem close, so near.

You somehow touched me
pleased the inner self and soul
and though I long to see you
thoughts of you are like gold.

You somehow touched me
passion stoked the oven of desire
somehow you re-lit the flame
till its grown to a raging fire.

You, simply by being yourself
reached deep inside the part
of me normally hid from the world
and you touched my heart.

Had to get my entry in. (Smile)

You touched my heart when you
accepted my nakedness & shame
you loved me anyway
without judgment nor blame

You touched my heart when you
allowed me to look deep inside
to see the depth of your soul
letting down your guard & pride

You touched my heart when you
held me & comforted me as I cried
showed me patience, strength, & love
because of you, Im now purified.

You touched my heart!
