Do I perceive you In mink or ermine In silk or satin Do you look latin Is your hair coiffed Or tousled or braided Nails trimmed Adorned With artful makeup? Truth told I care not If you've been aided My intent - my dream in toto To make you realize You could look Quasimodo You'd still be - my total object For the you inside I could not neglect There may yet be times Some distant future When window dressing Could enhance the view Right now 'twould suffice You dressed in morning dew If I were to dream Of a "you milieu" Dressed in a tableau More entrancing so Would you like to know Picture woodland glade Vision cool pool shade Soft ferns, pine needles Where a water-wheel wheedles Or waterfalls gentle On sandy beaches And all that is mental Is the curve of your lip The love in your eye The sound of your sigh As your kisses I sip The first duty of love is to listen. |

Your perceptions, Mr. Yeats, show through the stream of the waterfall, and quite well, I might add.... this is wonderful! |

If I were to dream Of a "you milieu" Dressed in a tableau More entrancing so Would you like to know most excellent. This one flows like a slowly bubbling, soothing river, one of your best yet! Corinne |

I go away for a few months and what do I find upon my return? Just what I expected to-- your pictures of poetic beauty. *S* Music, tonal clear & pure, |
