I saw your name

heart clutched
envelope trembled
fingers shook

took long, long look
at the stamp
and date sent
heaven bent

saw your name
fair game
never the same
again

would I hear the voice
in the words
see the words
give promise

promise

breathing hard
hardly breathing
get a grip

get a grip

don’t slip, don’t slide

Oh that Magic Carpet Ride

saw your name
won’t stay sane
never again
want to bend

toward heaven

Kari, I know this feeling, oh don't I just. Wonderful, as you know I would say. I really think this is one of your best I truly do. Utterly divine, I love it. YES I DO
Take care love
