Men are from Mars or so they say
Because they walk paths in logic's way
Women from Venus or so it seems
Because of emotional tears and their dreams

Men are the doers they share the fire
Of Mars surroundings, it lifts them higher
In multitasking they're dry as dust
But give them one problem they'll solve it or bust

Women have feelings in many-planed hue
Just like on Venus there's much to get through
They work on all levels it's part of their charms
Could wield men's emotions without any arms

Men travel slowly on paths that are long
And quite convoluted, they never are wrong
The women are right too and have the last word
They wear funny shoes and buy hats absurd

Women are mothers and nurturers true
They manage the day and mange men too
They squeal at a spider, yet ferocious are they?
When it comes to their offspring they'll fight and they'll prey

Men have the work ethic for something inside
They'll earn a good living and do it with pride
Their home is a haven from all the world's woes
But they like their mates and it oftentimes shows

Men are from Mars or so it's been said
Women from Venus to walk in love's tread
But I have a thought to bring to its birth
Let's deal with each other, we both come from earth

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’s song and writer of the moons magic, as always your way with words is outstanding. Never is there a pause in the flow of each line, each word placed in this dance of wordy delight with perfect precision. Again darling heart I’m spellbound by your magic. Beautiful weave of words darling heart, truly magnificent. If you continue to shine so, I shall be forced, against my normal reticence, to find something really magnificent to say, or write a poem for you, and you know how much I hate to do that.

Either that or it will be my duty, no matter how distasteful that is to keep you busy with a little duel! Mmmmm ‘tis a good thing I adore you darling girl, or you’d be hanging from the yardarm by now.

You know I s’pose that this is okay don’t you? Did I not tell you one day I would write that, I think it’s called the throw away line You only write so well because you can darling heart, and I can’t. And how quick was that? I would have been in bed but……… well you know, and no I haven’t bought anything else honestly. (Oh except the bracelets, it should have been one but it wasn’t, but it’s not twenty-five, so that’s a good thing)



Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire
