Willfully my dear, most willfully I come to thee For in thine heart I lie, resting peacefully amongst delicate flowers blooming upon thy plain of life. Into thine arms I fall, as would the tree, losing grasp of the warm earth beneath fallen snow. Our eyes shalt fleetingly pass, giving but a small glimpse of love, a vision shared. I come to thee bare of past sins, my humble life that of thine own wishes. I bequeath to thee my life, for now I come as thy faithful friend, a lover, confidant... I desireth not but one wish. A wish that has lain upon these lips, hesitant lips for countless moons. A wish, once granted, which will say loudly to thee my wants, sincere desires..... I wish to love thee endlessly, unselfishly and fully.....as thy chosen lover and mate, till our moon sets beyond the castle’s peak no more.... |

Oh, my! I'm breathless. My bright blue eyes have now paled to a pallid green with thoughts of the intended... You forsooth know how to turn a lovin' phrase or two!  Love and Light, EA |

Gosh, I already have someone, that has been around a long time with me, and neither of us are getting younger...and sudden shifts in the game plan are not allowed or anticipated... Just me the old romantic picking away at the page...is all... [This message has been edited by Magnus (10-23-2003 05:33 PM).] |

Truly a masterpiece. Damn I am loving the way you write sir. They use to call me Shakespeare...but I am thinking I better take off the crown and give it over to thee. Wonderful job. Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history! |
