for him of course... The legendary forbidden fruit is the self. ~David McFadden you showed me where the fruit hung brought me the ladder with your own strong hands you taught me the words to sing while picking you pointed out the most ripe that ready to drop and when I reached for green griping fruit you shook your finger smiled put your hand to your ear sing louder louder oh but the fruit on that branch is worth a thousand songs push aside the green leaves of thought quickly take it now my hand shook as I reached and when the prize was mine I sang loudly you stood beneath waiting for a taste of that which I had gathered and I fed you |

MiLady Kate... Fruit, like passion, when shared with someone special tastes all the sweeter and makes one thirst for more of the same. MoonShadow . |

Apples are wonderful, Milady... but my favorite is the sweet, succulent ambrosia nectar of a juicy sliced peach. I am powerless to resist. (sigh) MoonShadow . |
