I imagined we were a stationary train then a boxcar of two that was nearly over crowded so we had to get closer into each other like putting on another lover's gloving you said you liked my fingers like limbs that you could climb the tree feeling of and you knew I couldn't look into your eyes without that reaction that scared you sometimes we exchanged our small talk and whispering like mouthfulls of water and then running to that widefire place we started on purpose pretending to put it out when it was raging then there was that residue scattered after like spring flowers that some other god planted and everywhere your white dress went waltzing you picked up colors you said would be pretty when you mingled them in the beard of my mind ___________ daark (do of sand) |

Oh, my god!! Each line sounds like an irresistible song that makes me want to dance, even if only in the heart. Or I could do some somersaults to express the joy you convey with this gem ... maybe better not! Last time I tried to demonstrate my skills in the Cossacks' dance I ended up moaning ... in pain! ![]() Consideration: isn't it time to get published yet?!! Love, Margherita ![]() ![]() |

Yes, dear D., it does count and this is a beautiful place to share our poems. But - though I am sure many more people read you besides those who actually leave a comment - out there in the world there would be multitudes who would appreciate it too. Why deprive them of this possibility? One of the traits of your personality that always impresses me too, is your humbleness. The kind of humbleness that is characteristic for the truly great souls. Love, M |

![]() ![]() Well, while you are in such a nice mood, why don't you begin by putting together a selection of your most acclaimed gems? You could let us - the fans - indicate our personal favorites! Oh, isn't that a good idea? ![]() M |
