Does anybody have any idea what poem this is or the poet. I can't even remember the whole thing, but I know some of the lines:
Love, she said
Your hands
Your love, he said
And there is more to it, but these are the lines that stick in my head. I remember coming across this poem in high school and thought it was so beautiful, but now for the life of me I cannot remember anything about it. It is a rather short poem as well. Even when I put these couple of lines in a search engine, nothing remotely close comes up. I know it is not much to go on, but thought maybe someone somewhere may know.
I'm wondering if it is this one.
It sounds like a poem called 'may i feel said he' by e e cummings
may i feel said he
(i'll squeal said she
just once said he)
it's fun said she
(may i touch said he
how much said she
a lot said he)
why not said she
(let's go said he
not too far said she
what's too far said he
where you are said she)
may i stay said he
which way said she
like this said he
if you kiss said she
may i move said he
is it love said she)
if you're willing said he
(but you're killing said she
but it's life said he
but your wife said she
now said he)
ow said she
(tiptop said he
don't stop said she
oh no said he)
go slow said she
(cccome?said he
ummm said she)
you're divine!said he
(you are Mine said she)
