Midnight Summer's Test I know those words don't often reach through lips that miss the touch. Sometimes the unknown rises up blockading words of such. It isn't easy taking hold of feelings once in hide. Yet there they are a taste away, a kiss in want, denied. I know the times have changed each day leaving truth to rest upon a distant memory, a midnight summer's test. It isn't easy pressing forth, the bad along with good. It's even stranger when the course is often misunderstood. I know those words don't often reach where hearts can feel their "meant". Sometimes the distance leaves behind the warmth of their intent. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

powerfully expressive! These kind of 'tests' extend well beyond 'Midsummer nights', of course... I am particularly fond of the ending!: "I know those words don't often reach where hearts can feel their 'meant'. Sometimes the distance leaves behind the warmth of their intent." applause!! |

Dixie, I knew you would understand Bruce, Thank you, I kind of liked that verse too...because in long distance or even in short distance words can be misunderstood or seem to be "lacking". Bronzeage, Thank you for stopping by to read and respond. ThisDiamond, nice to see you here today. and thank you. Thank You TomM. M |
