~*~

I remember
backing up into a tight spot
crossing over
a two way street
the asphalt steaming
beneath my feet
like a magnet
I was drawn to you.

I remember your eyes
closing in all around me
you were a cool hand
trembling in mine
your smile was easy
on the edge
sticking to the vinyl
all lady like
like a lover.

Sliding past the point
never wanting to return
I remember those times
I cried and said good bye
and let you go
taking it back
because in my heart I knew
you were my only love affair
that keeps me wanting
completing my desire.

I've laid my heart down
beside you
and let it be
so you see
it will be this way for me
like the first time
always~

Beautiful Lori...like the first time ...always.

  or merely a reflection of mine? ~

Bluesy, your words touch so deep,
and so tenderly...
That they draw me into a place,
I never even knew existed...

A place, deep down inside,
I don’t ever want to leave...

A place, where a part of me,
never will...


Big hugs to you Bluesy

Dear Richy, that's just it, where my heart dwells and finds that little bit of peace, a place I can go to, if only in my dreams.  

Thanks for reading me just so~

(big angel hugs) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is such a beautiful romance moment, sweet friend, this appealed to me like a scene from a classic Hollywood romance when all the actresses wore polka-dotted swimsuits and had those innocent hairstyles! (kiss on cheek) Yay, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lori, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

What a beautifully romantic write...seems like we're all dreaming about love these days. Huh...you'd think it was spring! Or...maybe it just goes with the creative bent we all seem to share!  In any case, this one is special!  Thanks for sharing, Bluesy!

Love and Light...jc

This I know as Truth...we are all Beings of Light.

Bluesy -- I've been out of pocket for almost a week now and I've missed reading your work.  Gotta a buch of catching up to do.  This one, well, this one is tremendous -- really, really good!  I guess you figured out that . . . I really like it!

Wow, Bluesy, as I walked in bare feet with you, it was like walking on coals.  I could feel the magnetic force.  You really have constructed a strong, but gentle setting here, with such a pleasant flow.  It's hard to describe...
   Much enjoyed!

Emotionally powerful write Lori.  It touches the heart because it came from the heart.

Such joy to have known
such pain to have lost
your words say this cost is worth the gain
I will think on this a while.

Thank you.

Yes! *S* As powerful as the pull of that magnet... some things are for always. *S*

This is so fine.... and there's at least one lucky fellow in the world.

Look what I miss by being out of here!
