Turn Out The Light

Turn out the light tonight
For I don't want to see
Your face reflect farewell's light

Your face reflect farewell's light
Or you to see my tears fall
Not for our last touch or sight

Not for out last touch or sight
Remember me as sweet
And not as a bitter light

And not as a bitter light
The touch of honeyed wine
Never as an angry fight

Never as a angry fight
As the kiss that whispers
As a smile within the night

As a smile within the night
Or the touch of flames
The sound of lovers starlight

The sound of lovers starlight
No heartbreak must show so
Turn out the light tonight

Paula dear heart I hope this is right!!

Paula love, Anything!! Hey are you sure??
Okay I admit it, it was fun, but I did have to work dear heart. I can't dash them off like you can. But Sshhhhhhhh don't tell Kari, she'll have me doing Bassetts else. (Bassetts liquorice all sorts love!) I knew you'd ask

And I'm not doing any haiku senru whatever they are called, I don't know even how they go together. So don't ask kid

Take care love
