Over Seas Correspondence Poem by Matthew Holloway

A cross Continental affair
In a literary sense
A conspirator, co-writer
A page turning companion
In the bed of all verse
~
A lover and lover of words
Their conjuring of imagery
Picture house portraits
Offering thoughts and feeling
With a touch of senses
~
The nights shared out
In pages and screens
Words whispered together
In reading and writing
Bedfellows made
Literary speaking
~
The prose and pulse
Of the heart talking in rhythm
Making a unison
Across time and oceans
Touching, fleetingly touching
~
An affair of sorts
Perhaps not quite as known
But all is written and read
Red as the blood flowing
Within this tome
