Good Lord, no.
Don't touch me.
Stay right there.
Smile if you must.
Talk.
But do not touch.
No, there's no damage here.
No back story
No single thing I need you
To help me through.
No way to elicit my gratitude
And then bargain with it.
Call it a dare.
Touch me
Move me
Make me (sweet Jesus ) think.
Only do it without your hands.
Good Lord, no.
Say something.
The right thing.
Touch me.
I dare you.

Wow what a profound Post with -/- (out) your Touching Words.
( if you get my meaning.lol.)
so deep. love seems to be a factor.
powerful poem...
You touch me with your words. The change takes place in us, sometimes we are not even aware. Powerful!
Never fail to touch, to move me with your words! A powerful one today it is and such a great reminder! Have a wonderful day, Sandy!

A beautiful prayer disguised as poetry!
A wonderful poem, full of great feeling.
Dear Sandy,
in this short time 'knowing you', this feels to be one of the most strongest pieces you have done.
A deep bow in respect for you and your writing. Impressed.
Please have a good Sunday you all.
daily athens
so intriguing, a wonderful depth of yearning and feeling.
Oh yes very well done. God touches the soul and the mind any other touching is not Gods' lol
So yes Please do not touch me.
Very good.
:)
Powerful words. Excellently done.
Sometimes I understand and other times not. That's fine. ♥♥♥
I wish the Lord would do as you wish!
Very touching words Sandy...I could totally relate to your poem!
This certainly got me to twitch. Will he or won't he. Does she really want him to or not...
A dare to touch
Pleases me so much,
A clever verse, of course.
Fast and nice, and now the edge to do what one has been asked not to do, touch me, I dare you
such a consummate tease!
this speaker really knows how to tickle:)
Thought provoking..
Thanks for the treat.
I knew exactly where you were going with this. Wonderful words!!
Exceedingly provocative!
oh, I'll have to reread this one :)
clever.
very good indeed......thanks for sharing your words
Hmmm.....No teasing, no game-playing here. When I saw the prompt for this week, I thought of the men I have known who have attempted to play what they have believed to be my vulnerability to their advantage--which is to say to try to bed me down. Because men will try anything and walk away and not care at all, a woman needs to stay ahead of the game. That's not playing or teasing. That is surving with honor. I know the game so well.
A poem with attitude.
Not Joe Klein.
This is very powerful Sandy.. and you indeed know life well.. now I would refrain from calling it a game..
I liked the power of your bold dare!
Truly a worthy challenge, Sandy. And may the BEST man win!!!
It is critical to trust one's intuition and to set and maintain boundaries accordingly. Most of all to articulate what is important. You have done this brilliantly.
Oh- I loved the dare you put out there...just perfect!!! Have a great week- Happy March (finally)
