falling softly ...


falling
.....softly
me to
him
and within
his heart
all distance
gone
we sleep to dream
and ... dream
to touch
and live today
to love
and while time keeps track
we'll hold the key
and change our fate
as we see fit
those cotton candy fantasies
which melt like whispers
upon the breast
will bring him back
between my arms
against my flesh
now pebbled pink
flushed and scented by
his musk
i'll fall again
to dream ... for this
is where
he waits

by each let this be heard,
some do it with a bitter look,
some with a flattering word"

Oh Snowy...

You know, it just dawned on me,
that I haven’t been getting all that much
rest lately...

And you know what they say,
Early to bed, and early to rise...

Snowy, I’m going to have to
sleep on this one...

I’m sure that something,
will come to me,
as I fall softly, to sleep

Hi Snow. I LOVE THIS! Oh wow! This is absolutely beautiful, wonderful, pure genius! Did I mention I LOVE THIS! Well done my friend. You have just inspired my mind-to-a-thinkin'. (Oh no...that means I am going to draw from this and write some verse.) Of course it is going to have to wait for at least a few hours. I have an 80- mile round trip to make this morning before 9 AM. Still I am absolutely delighted I stopped in to read this before I began my trip. Well done Snow. Well done indeed! (BUMP!) Back to the top it goes.

Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history!
