It rained on the night parade of lights We were debating breezes and how you said you could control the weather long enough for me to light up, but I missed my chance pondering your audacity, & inspiration swept across my shoulders in the form of a dark smile Wet leaves glistened and we listened to invisible frogs: whispering Inns of no outs for fireflies, and I wondered if their tongues glowed You have issues and I have fanciful moods so we, like wind chimes, dangle around subjects and toast them with the agreement of pipes I smoked some tranquil music with your confident lyrics They had a nice ring to ‘em, but not enough for me to get naked with my thoughts Your night vision is better than mine I’m aware of that, except whatever I fall hard over during the day I’m nocturnal about Soft webs of water fell, limb to limb The sky kept grumbling around us like a hungry dog I kept walkin’ with the back of my mind to it while staying on the sensitive topic of hands No bones No bones, in the woods Just the soft scents of muster & matter, the fallen and grayed-open damp, shapes that shiver & drink But the heart is done, so strongly prized, as the most perfumed part of a tree I’m Incensed If you stand still long enough, you’ll find me |

Regina I love reading you ... even if I'm not quite sure of something concrete to say after, the mood stays with me. |

Regina~ There is soft beauty to the voice of this~ Couldn't help but notice just the hint of internal rhyme~ *Huglets*  ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ Email - [email protected] |

Regina, this is simply just wonderful my friend, you held me with each word, especially enjoyed these few lines. You have issues and I have fanciful moods so we, like wind chimes, dangle around subjects and toast them with the agreement of pipes You are difting on a pain of magical and I like it dear friend. I don't know how long I can stand still, but hope your magic finds me again reading you. Thanks for sharing. Rick |

Reg, I like this path you are on as it so inspires amazing images in my mind that would never have developed any other way. And as I pause, almost I think, I have found you.  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, |

No bones, in the woods Just the soft scents of muster & matter, the fallen and grayed-open damp, shapes that shiver & drink ~*~ I love finding you, and your words so warmly nestled within these blue halls... |

Regina, one of the best writes I have read in a long time, this swarmed visuals dripping off of each sentence which took my mind and dragged it along like a little kid pulling her wagon... and I loved the description of two totally different people, and how their cultures clashed...and yet, love still abodes... Brilliant write...thank you |
