Salmon skies surround as fenceless free
Eyes rome the dome of heaven fair,
Yet such beauty pales and melts
As pasty snow kissed by the Sun's
Sultry mouth when compared to the
Land, Clad in robes of gold and green,
Her curves roll and call,
Sensual visual ecstasy.
And in the north the mountains rise,
Tipped, instead of red, a succulent white,
While southward bare, lies the desert shaved,
Aching for the gentle caress of the wind
Or the light touch of rain,
Strangley humid barren base.

So is the land fair whence I came,
Birthed of hollowed cavern, echoing cave;
My bones the rock of earth delved deep,
My flesh the dirt of shallow ground,
My breath the mountain air, and,
My blood the desert rain.

You know what dear sweet friend. Just cause I know how annoying you find this *bumping* thingy, I'm gonna do it gently I promise.

*soft bump*

Now see, that didn't hurt at all.

Read through this again, and I have to tell you it really is exquisite. You know, whenever I read your poetry I always feel

and look, there's that annoying HuG again too.

Your name is shown underneath your poem. If you filled that out on the form, then it will appear there. It is a fine name, one that is unique and rolls off the tongue.

But that is why, since ya did ask.
