Life has so much to stimulate our mind, desire, and love. Therefore, we just have to be more attentive in what life has to offer and the people in our lives and make the most of every opportunity. Thanks for the read.

Very beautiful Jewell. I loved it. Today has been a day filled with love for me and I must say your poem made it all the better. I could see myself in the picture your poem paints. Great imagery.

I like the title, it fits well with your stream of expression. You really are a romantic aren't you? The only thing missing here is that mutually tender look in the eyes of two lovers when the chemistry is just perfect. It almost makes sex irrelevant.
I don't know about a lover, but did you know you have a grizzly bear under your left ear? LOL Congratulations.

This is my sort of poem. I enjoy reading anything like this. It is very descriptive and it makes you feel as if you are actually feeling the same sensations, the same stimuli.

Thanks for sharing your sensitive soul!

This poem has some lovely phrases in it, and I could have seen the inspiring picture without your inclusion of it. However, I would have trimmed some of the more abstract parts toward the end, because I think the imagery and the beautiful language you used already conveyed those feelings.

What about ending it this way?

Memories brought back
by just a smell or a touch
or flavor, like God's still small voice.
