crowd gathers at riverside park fish knife through water sea serpent-like raging mutants uncertain of genre spawning bottled magic rigorous major-league attention draws ideas from superstructures stepping inside the mind of imagination endearments skip from a childlike man sailing on a bridalway composition of chuncky waves over a marbel basin coupled with a biblical terra cotta sunrise travel book photos of roses on wine tasting spindals archwayed by pleasant floral like a drapped elegant garment thin veiled… yet, amazingly true to nature... ivory romance mystical array of intense & brilliant color almost certain pre-raphael paintings invisible, yet there for emotions to touch to feel such a strategic therapeutic center filled with galloping trails of early spring white blooms swaying gently in the wind.... Egyptian-styled half figurines grey squirrels seriously play around to the tunes from a huge circular pool and there a fountain lodges a slender nude Artemis daughter of Leto and Zeus fratility surrounds may flies hatching bold and hungry and there somewhere in time I stroll the pedistol of eminence of many leaves cultivating options of conversation sprawling water reveals nymphettes drapery, gently pulled back and freed from necessity bathing in all their naked beauty paraphernalia of virginity lay against my mind such like venice & it's countryside, cottages village people, children planting memory and you there next to me less is more and several lifetimes whisper "companion lovers" can't live with or without each other "dearheart" we are completion in unknown beginnings over and over again maybe someday we'll get it right? secrets live like numersous nodes of true interpretations that venture toward the moon a private venture we alone may tour until then ...I love you...~ |

Lee~ You can truly write like no one else I know~ 'and you there next to me and less is more and several lifetimes whisper ' ... this being only a snippet of all I found to like in this penning~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

yes....as others have mentioned, the following contains lines that are especially fine: “and you there next to me less is more and several lifetimes whisper "companion lovers" can't live with or without each other..." I also like: “we are completion in unknown beginnings over and over...” And...specific images such as: “children planting memory” “mystical array of intense & brilliant color” very interesting ‘write’! |
