it was a funny kind of afternoon driveway you and I were both children in our minds in older cars not moving too fast but fast enough that crashing into each other would have bent places into always there afters I remember the sun on your windshild smile how your eyes were brand new chrome want to and your lips when they moved around words made me want to polish them with kiss cloths and then park them in my own no car garage you said I was a safe road for your wheels and you liked bumping into my curbs too just to know I had some boundries here and there and I would feel you often if you went too fast or even too slowly when I touched your curves we double parked for what could have been hours but we didn't go anywhere special except over familiar ground with our boots on just enjoying the warm speed limit sighs that aroused without arrows or yeilding except to the traffic of our hands during dreams ______________ daark (forbidden) |

quote: Your "forbidden" is pure delight! You have such a unique, special way to convey emotions, that besides in your memories, they will also stay with the reader. To cherish. Love, Margherita  |

I have a two car garage. You know how I feel about your poetry. Well, each one I read just makes the feeling stronger. |

I do love your poetry too. My chrome teeth smiled as I sat,once again, doubled parked up One Tree Hill,playing aircraft and hangers and making regretable dents in my thereafters. Boshii2 |

When I glance at the title, I always see -- children of older cats do you think I might need to be wearing my glasses? |

you always get such good 'mileage' from you metaphors, and this one is no exception...loved this line: "made me want to polish them with kiss cloths" ...but all was good...again... |

You come up with some of the best titles then follow them with a delight of metaphors etc. Love those unique perspectives. Eric |
