I am a writer. My passion is poetry. I feel words connect people together and help us to understand the feelings we share.

"I Wished For You" by Lynn M. Neuman.

When she sees him
she knows it was a lucky star
she wished upon.

Her heart melts in the warmth
of his eyes,
in the sound of his voice,
in the loving feeling of his touch.

Others say it’s infatuation
but she knows he is the one,
her soul-mate, the one she has waited on for so long.

She jumps in wholeheartedly
for she has suffered too many heartaches
to let him slip away.

She freely gives herself,
fighting strong to keep
the passion burning.

She sees affection in his eyes,
his words speak of love,
there is a strong feeling with each tender kiss,
a passionate desire as he holds her close.

Then he tells her
of a night he made a wish upon a star
and his dreams are coming true.

Suddenly she realizes
they both wished
upon the first star
on that same wonderful night.
