On hot summer days,
Or winter's gray,
I walk my own route,
With never a pout.

My feet in green grass,
I dream of a lass,
Wind tousles my hair,
Old Sol hot to bear.

I do not speak once,
I'm thought of as dunce.
But love's in my soul,
And I have a goal.

I walk towards her,
I can hear her purr,
Tomorrow she's mine,
Heady as fine wine.

Oh Good! I like a bit of scratching, Namyh, that usually means she is having a . . . er . . . good time, and I love giving pretty girls a good time.

Glad you liked the poem, and that it helped you cope with today.

The poem was fantastic and the picture was breathtaking to see. It all came together in your very romantic word weaving. Always a pleasure to read your poetry and the pictures that goe with them.

And there she is, indeed as heady as fine wine.

Inhale-exhale-whewwwwwww....

You adjusted a couple of half-noted and made me whole.

Thank you, Jer.
