Lotus Garden

Quietly, we embrace in a world lit up by words

Touched by Love

Touched by Love

I knew I had been touched
by love...
the first time I saw you
and I felt your warmth
and heard your laughter.

I knew I had been touched
by love...
when I was hurting from
something that happened,
and you came alone
and made the hurt go away.

I knew I had been touched
by love...
when I quit making plans
with my friends
and started dreaming dreams
with you.

I knew I had been touched
by love...
when I stopped thinking in
terms of "me"
and started thinking in
terms of "we".

I knew I had been touched
by love...
when suddenly I couldn't make
decisions by myself anymore,
and I had this strong desire
to share everything with you.

I knew I had been touched
by love...
the first time we spent
alone together
and I knew I wanted to stay
with you forever...
because I had never felt
this touched by love.

Be your CigaretteWhen we two parted

I knew I had been touched by words

The first time I was lucky to get a hold of a computer

Listening to your Snowman

Watching the creativity soaked words.

I knew I had been touched by words

The first time I read about your love for lotus

How your name coincides with my junior English Teacher

Who gave me much, much to chew for my whole life.

I knew I've been touched by words

The first ever time I left a comment on your Musings.

Feeling your deep and (seemingly) unrequired love

Words moved every nerve of me.

I knew I've been touched by words

The moment I read your splendid translation of the poem of the most difficult-to-translate-language.

Accurate, Exact, Graceful,

You've achieved all the best

I've been touched by your words

For never in my life have I felt being embraced by the caring and loving words, in a world lit up by the magical words.

It's only words,

And words are all you have,

To take my heart away...

Regards, a boy loving and being loved by your words, Timm.

You know what, Timm boy? Now I have been deeply touched by your touching words, from which at least I am aware that my efforts in writing have been paid off a little.

I am amazed again by your skill in expressing by word.

Hmmm? You know sister, the structure is copied straight from your original poem, and the ending is the lyrics of boyzone's Words... I just borrowed them, unlike you, creating them...

Hi, Timm boy, haven't you noticed the tag of this poem---Poetic romance, not my poetry. I feel happy you appreciate it as well like me~!

Hi sister,

Yeah I see it now... Sorry though. Are you as busy as I am? I am under tin impression that you teach senior 3, too... And by the way, my teacher didn't come here for a week... :frown: I'll urge her tomorrow if I can...

Alicelotus 23. April 2007, 15:37

Yeah, I am much engaged with my work as well as a role of tutor in my spare time.I surmise you teacher is in the same boat with me, so don't urge her. Now I am expecting my long summer holiday when there will be enough time for me to do anything I like.

Have a nice sleep~!
Alice

Hmmm... You must be a much respected and admired teacher... And hey, my deskmate asked for your post address so he can send a drawing to you. :D

Alicelotus 23. April 2007, 16:04

Send a drawing to me? That is great~! Show my thanks to him~!

张弛 Sir AzureTimm, Kingdom of Love 24. April 2007, 00:33
