They were starin' at the butterfly who just drew the Jack of all Hearts. ~ Bob Dylan white cuffed to the marrow nails cut smug square he brownfingered her pulse she clasped her wings around the gift that would take her watched lonely nights alight in dusty corner quiet slid into the room breaths drew in waited on silent lips she knew the answer jack over princess a soft flush played across precious cheeks no flash no smile the princess threw in her hand the moment she drew the Jack of all Hearts |

What lady could resist the Jack of Hearts???  I appreciate the delicate touches of innuendo in your poetry. You have a romance novel ~ or two ~ or three ~ in you begging to be written!  To love and romance, LA  |

she clasped her wings around the gift that would take her ~*~ Thoughts of moths came to mind... grasping the unknown warmth and waiting for the burn.... well done, m'Lady... |

I always enjoy a good princess -- and then one that comes with a Jack of Hearts? Oh, Man, I am in. Alison |

This reads like a "trip" if you know what I'm sayin'. It's very... I don't know, it feels very Jefferson Airplane. I dig it Lady, I dig it a lot. Cheers - Ed I'm seeing some really great poetry in Forum #41. “Well all the apostles, they’re sittin’ on the swings, sayin’ I’d sell off my savior for a set of new rings.” |

Your words like brilliant images on canvas... the consumate painter... leaves one wanting more of the same. Hoping for epic or novel. Thank you for sharing. MoonShadow . |
