Ebony

Ebony stunts my mood today
A blow of blunt and crude dismay
It slides me down the pit of ID
And will not let me lift the lid.

I feel the shadows dance around
They touch my skin in trance of sound.
Electrify the sweat of sere
And there the angst appears in fear.

I listen for each sound a key
To turn a latch and let me free
But ebony is its own inane
And plays upon my minds insane.

There is no way to blunt the dark
No firefly will light a spark
And I am left a pit of dwell
That smells to me a fringe of hell.

And I would be its knave and slave
If not a morning’s kiss did save.

(smiles) Oh Seymour, I know this feeling so very well, sweet friend, silhouettes of my love still invade my dreams and yearn for her so much yet the affection they display feels so real! (big hugggsssss) This is beautiful, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Upon the ice where fire's heat
would puddle pools of safe retreat
I dance the dance of id's display
somehow, somewhere, it's safer that way

Ebony has its own beauty...if you close your eyes real tight..a kaleidoscope of pure delight.

Saved by a morning kiss...wonderful!

oooh, you have some excellent, original lines in this, delightful read, it strokes the senses

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

I feel the shadows dance around
They touch my skin in trance of sound.
Electrify the sweat of sere
And there the angst appears in fear.

I listen for each sound a key
To turn a latch and let me free
But ebony is its own inane
And plays upon my minds insane.

No firefly will light a spark
And I am left a pit of dwell
That smells to me a fringe of hell.


And I would be its knave and slave
If not a morning's kiss did save.

=======================================

Me and Tink cant have you wandering in the dark ...
We're sending you and Randy a special kind of spark
This will light your ebon' night so bright ...
Ebony will take flight to Ivory's winter white

A firefly might kiss and tell ...
but not the lips of bliss of Tinkerbell

Seymour darling heart sorry I’m late but my bodies time clock is way out of balance at the moment, so I’m not in sync with anyone’s time zone. As always your writing is so sublime, written with your usual aplomb and style, no wonder I love your writing, it really is superb. I love it utterly

Release the thoughts that pull you down
You are the poet who wears PiP’s crown
Your words flowing in poetic stream
Weave words of magic into the dream
Am I awake or perhaps again asleep?
Run to capture this for me to keep
The wisdom dished up each day by you
Answers the question of what to do
Give each day more than you take
Mould the dreams for poets sake
Touch the thought and stir the soul
Believe in truth will keep you whole
Your words inspire the writers here
Release the thoughts of failures fear


Truly one of your best darling man, and I’m hoisting this to the top again, have a good day tomorrow/ today and I applaud you darling man I really do, this is exceptional


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

JM,

but not the lips of bliss of Tinkerbell

You know ebony read those lines and she just got up and walked away. Thank you my sweet.
I hope all is going well with you and your family. Just give them some chicken soup.
Have things to do a little short on time. I'll try and write tonight. WWRS


Marsha,
Your replies are always so sweet I've gained
ten pounds. But I do love candy.
I hope you are well you are a pillar to my ego. Sy
