Drink
deep
of me
and I
will be
all your
dreams
made whole
Take this cup
and from it sup
my passion is made
whole. Each night you
sleep in passions keep
beware the tempter's lure
for while you drink your soul
does shrink and lost to loving
cure.Then come the dawn and
I am gone your dreams in disarray
in deep regret you can't forget and
ever rue the day. Did you know
you'd need it so, when first
you had begun.
or does the claim
built up by fame
now have you on the run.
You can't see the pain in me
is blinded by your choice, and
I too drink to stop my think I drink
to still my voice. You cannot know
in drink I show whatever I may be
and you won't be a part of me till
drink sets us both free. Each drink
we take, makes vows forsake. Your
love for me grows wan. I'll drink with
you , you know I do just so we can
go on. In dawn's new light held by
this plight our passion is well met
in glass of true I drink to you
so all things we forget
Upon these words I gasp and choke
and raise my glass in toast of coke


Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Keth darling sister of my soul and painter of my dreamers skies OH YES!! This is exceptional writing, utterly utterly brilliant. You have truly outdone yourself this time. Every single word in this is utterly perfect, you’ve really written this perfectly

I read this and thought, Oh WOW, this it is an excellent poem and deserves wide acclaim. Outstanding writing as always YOU darling heart excel TRULY AWESOME.

I forgive you for being multi-talented, I forgive you for writing time and again words that ring with wonder, I even forgive you for teasing a little innocent soul like me. I’d forgive you anything because you write sooooooooo well, and there was another reason what was it? Ahhh oh yes and because I wub you. Softly breathy sigh of thank you love, that’ll do darling girl Only you can do shapes as wondrous as this.


Love and warm stuff

I loved this part particularly... but I just adored the entire piece... and I like how you made it into a bottle.....

Love, Light and Peace,

Auntie Kethp this my favourite aunt is to steal mum’s phrase utterly wonderful. How on earth do you do such a complex shape, I’m amazed. Mum can manage easy things, Can’t anyone? But only someone with your incredible skill could manage something this beautiful. The words flow with the ease of liquid down a thirsty throat, and YOU are definitely a quencher of poetry’s thirst. Awesome writing, excellent presentation, and I’m clapping wildly with delight.

Auntie Kethp this is utterly utterly utterly excellent I’ve been spending way too much time with my mum She’s right though this is utterly excellent

Love and warm stuff
