Granted I miss you. But some things were never meant to be- I am a poet and you are married and you were always there for me until just recently. A beauty in my youth, everyone could see the handsome, powerful man with the gorgeous mistress of me but those days are gone with days that changed us each, and put those fond memories of old times out of reach. We were beautiful. Yes. But between tears and years I find that the memory of us simply blurs and disappears. |

We were beautiful. Yes. But between tears and years I find that the memory of us simply blurs and disappears. Powerful, Dixie! But dear Lindsay is right, you are still very beautiful!! And there will be another handsome man to make you happy once again. love Margherita ![]() |

Dixie, I think that there is something really special about a woman who can admit her beauty, speak of it and draw others in to the fact that it exists - but is not all of her. You do that to me. Yes, you are a beautiful poet (smiles). Alison |
