The sweet in my Tea My butterfly lives far from me But never is she hard to see Her colors tint the sky all day Within my mind in subtle play Her palette is a dozen hues With gentle green and coolest blues That fills her brush with softest touch That pleases me I fear too much. I look for her each day I rise Within the mornings mist surprise And see her magic crystal clear In everything that’s far and near She colors all I do and say As gentle as a flowers way As sweet as nectar in its store As tender as the rain in pour I mix her in my mornings tea Well just enough to sweeten me.

He rings my bells ... and chings my chimes His winds beneath my wings ... floats me across his sands of time Building rainbow bridges ... as our minds entwine He wraps me in quiet comfort ... in his rhyme divine Seeing the world thru his vision ... the view is cooler thru his eyes Perception born of wisdom ... in his words we witness wise He takes me to Shangri-La ... we walk his beaches of understand His mind's poetic Eden ... yet we grow when he takes pen in hand I can think of no kinder gift or honor ... than to be his muse Thank you "Stinky" ... for painting my world in your golden hues You gave this tired moth ... Tinkerbell wings to fly I will treasure you forever ... my sweet poet .. my sweet Sy  ~~~~~~~~~~~ thank you Sy ... heart and soul  |

Sunshine, Thank you sweet you brighten my day. *L* JM, You have brought me a basket of nectar and I'm afraid I'll overdose. For I love the honey of your words as they in me osmose. Flattery has added a pound or two. And Randy just sits and smiles in rue. Winkiewinkie Stinky |
