A moment's hesitation, merest whisper of a sigh, hazy luminous indulgence with no chance to wonder why. Caress of stardust on your shoulder, moonlight dances on your face, embraced by shadows, in their dark grasp, as your heart begins to race. A voice that beckons you with pleasure, promises the world to you, but then… comes the daylight strong and strident, and you're on your own again. "A clay pot sitting in the sun will always be a clay pot. It has to go through the white heat of the furnace to become porcelain." --Mildred W. St |
