will you share your wisdom
miss jonnie jo
i understand you're
in the know

tell me this, and then
the rest;
what heart has he
within his chest...

you know the secrets
that he hides
in you the moments
he confides

so tell me,
will you tell me friend
what laughter heals
the whole of him

what words will shake him
into tears
what chambers claim
his hopes and fears

what kind of heaven
does he crave
what love will drive him
to a slave

can you whisper it,
do you know...
when he needs to hide
where does he go

when his pride is wounded
and his smile dim
who's embrace
encircles him

if i look for him
will he reach for me
or will he be in fear
and flee

what kind of journey
is this man
what gentle holding
has his hand

to look in his eyes
how does it feel
the tangible him
the absolute real

to know his smile
to feel his touch
can you tell me
just this much...

miss jonnie jo
he holds you close
and i know you're the one
who knows

tell me this,
and then the rest--
what heart has he
within his chest...

I've just heard a new blues tune in this.

"if i look for him
will he reach for me
or will he be in fear
and flee"

Wanting but not being the one....

This is Great
REALLY sweet and adorable poem
But, due to the nature of these ???'s
I have been sworn to a certain amount of secrecy/speechlessness myself......

blues tune sounds good..i can imagine this middle-aged man holding a guitar, wearing sunglasses, belting out this tune pining for the lost, howling to the audience, yet with a self-assured grin that makes you root for him....

LOL @ RASCAL...you cant stand it can you...lol    

ok..to save RASCAL from stressing..this is written to the best friend of the one i'm finding interest in....lol  got it?  lol

i'm not exactly the "other woman"..as has been interpreted..(which, its ok with me, if you misinterpret...i'm sure i do the same to many of YOUR poems..lol)

dont you find sometimes..that you just want to know every little thing...even if its not a serious relationship..you just find yourself completely intrigued...    and then you figure out where to get the answers..the dirt..the nitty gritty...lol  and all the intimate details....    then you want to know even more..!  lol  

anyway..PIXY, TRACEY, EAGLE, KAILE...i thank you all, for stopping in to read me..read me how you will..just read me.. lol  

hugs, g
