i see watercolors fall from your eyes landing in my right palm silt and earth your spirit grasped for planting vineyards burgeon deep within my ribcage sprouting whispers of blood and sweat my thorax sustaining life eternal. |

James? *laughing here* yeah, I wish, no I wish 26, that was a good age. You can take that 23 - turn the numbers around and add three to that! Thank you Thank you Duncan, a reply from you always brings me a smile. Kris? A nervous breakdown? Hmmmm . . . Thank you, Paul! Diana, this made me really smile, you are so silly TG . . . and NO, man, I wish I wish not so much 23 but another time perhaps. Thank you for that, it truly made me smile over here. Thank you Linda. Hey Phil, those few lines were learned from many fine writers here. Thank you. Hey Donna, thank you so much! Thanks Susan so much. Thanks guys . . . |
