Words fly to my fingertips
like fire to drought
flaming leaps
to get out

I am awed again
by your sweet lips
and what keeps
falling from them

Your unsuspected syllables
igniting my heart
stoking my tender
right from the start

Consumed to cinder
and ash collectables
I am blown away
by what you say

I'd be blown away too with all that cinder and ash .  er . . . oh. Collectables are they? Once again you have said what you've said in a delightful way . . .

I guess you as a Poetess bless him equally well with what you say and write!

This is delightful, dear Lori.
