Papers stacked wall to wall
Pale light glimmering over my heavily-grained desk

Words flowing like running water
Tales of heart and poems of passion

From the window I can see her coming
I hear her footsteps and my heart begins to race

Midnight…

She leaves her world and comes to mine
We two, trapped in a forbidden love

Engulfed in flames of rapture
fueling our heated desires

Then, as the light of dawn sears through the panes
she’s gone…

I wrote her that way

Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here...

And a mighty good way to write her, my friend. You write was basic and put her in the light you wanted her to be seen in. And it works out well for the both of ya.

Inside our heads we are free to paint life any color we like. And if we can spell it we can share it. ~L

Truly fascinating reply Lori Rhoden. Thank you so very much!

If we can share it, may many receive it well, for we are free indeed.
