My 1000 post and I nearly missed it.

How I Like To Wake Up

Rising through the embers of my misty dreamy night
I open my weary eyes to see your contented smile
I drowsily smile back hoping I'd turn back the light
You laugh and say that I can have just a little while
But given the choice between sleep and your delight
I'd choose to bring back that loving contented smile


Sleeps cobwebs are swept away in loves eager flame
As my reaction to your kiss is as instant as a touch
A fire storm sweeping us into this passions hot game
Amazing that we always want each other this much
Heat that swirls and sucks us into it's storm the same
Only saved from drowning by the safety of your touch


Each time I'm pulled, fall into this madly burning fire
I think that we've reached the end of our lovers' heat
And each time I'm overcome with passions' hot desire
Each time I think that there's nothing at all left to beat
You shoot me further in the heavens taking me higher
My eyes dilate with sheer wonder of this magical feat


Marsha

It is the harmony of the universe

Circe, thank you muchly, and isn't it typical of me to very nearly miss my 1000th. I was going to go for the soft delicate touch. And then I thought noooooo I don't want to do that! Actually it wasn't a conscious choice at all, these sort of appear, by themselves.  
Take care of yourself love

Ethome, thank you, I truly do thank you. It doesn't seem that long ago since I was the very new girl on the block. I was in total awe of all the talent here, in fact I still am. I came because I needed to and stayed because here is my home and you all are all my family. So thanks kindly.  

Paula, Thank you, thank you muchly, I seem to only write three types of poems lately, mushy, funny, or warm. Although this one seems quite hot.  

Take care
                 Mushy Marsha

Charisma, thank you, I do appreciate you I really do. I still can hardly believe it's 1000, my doesn't time fly when you're having fun.  

Hey lil sis, thanks love, I love that graphic, you know I'm totally bemused by them. Which is why I'm always awestruck that anyone can get them to work. (I come from the idiotic side of the family you know, we're fun to be with but not a lot of use intellectually.)
Take care love

Robert, MMmmmm yes I do believe you are right.

Sven, I think it's more a case of whom and where you wake up, as opposed to how.  
Glad you like this one, you do don't you? I was just checking.
Take care

Congratulations 1000 WOW!



It seems like only yesterday
you cam to passions, began to play
as you posted we wanted more
and watched with glee as your poetry soared
you gave your heart and mind as well
encouragement for all who fell
and now the time has come to say
thank you and be here always

Be well

Kari, thank you, it's been a wonderful 1000, and I look forward eagerly to whatever may come. You know how much I love your work, and I reiterate it your work is inspired, and always wonderous. Thank you for the beauty you have brought me.  
Take care

Kethry, my sweet friend, that is so kind of you. And I thank you truly, I don't deserve the gifts of your words, but I'll accept them because they are so delightful. Thank you for your work which always makes me smile
or moves me to tears. Truly a gift you have.
Take care

Jon, thank you very much. I'm pleased you liked this one. I suppose I feel a bit sentimental about this because I never imagined that I'd get to 1000. It truly seems just like yesterday, and now I really couldn't imagine life without Passions at all. Many thanks
Take care
