Who is this
muse
that fuels
your passion
to write
such haunting,
awe inspiring,
long
poetry
that captivates
us
mere mortals
to suck
our eyes
down
to asorb
every last word
onto our soul
to the
end.

You write of
"Honeyed Dreams"
like a cloud
of tenderness
to get lost in,
to rise us up
to poetic heights
like the peak
of the mountain
to shout
one's love
to the
world.

A story where
the begining
and the end
are the same,
maybe...
maybe not.

To make reason
and meaning
of the universe
with all its
beauty
and mystery
of the
ebb and flow
of emotion
of heart storms
like waves
of blue water
to surf upon
drowning
in dreams
of love
lost
and
found.  

Your words
flow,
a liquid library
writing
on the walls
of waves
watery words
of drowned
dreams
on the uncharted
ocean
of salty
secrets.

A fantastic ride
upon the waves
of your
creativity
leaving me
drowning
in your
words,
"in the shear,
of heartgasm."

So lovely,
so emotional,
so utterly passionate,
you touch me
with your finger
words.

Questions asked,
anwsers implied
poems within poems.

Only you
would ask,
"Where is the
good
in goodbye?"

Only you
would say
"There must
be us
in lust!"

Only you
would know
"That each first breath
was another's last."

You
and your poetry
make it hard
for me breathe
and I risk
vertigo
my head
spinning
with emotion
swallowing
your heartfelt
words
as my eyes
drift down...

down...

down...

the page.

This is
but a mere
imitation
of your
style,
I'm unworthy
I know
but I thank you
for sharing
your beautiful
heart.

"All I know is
I'm in wordlove
only just.
for you."

These are
your words
because
they speak
to my heart
and I couldn't
express myself
any better
than
you.

Aren't you lovely!!!  What a wonderful gift for Richy, he is all that and you have captured him in the perfect light and placed him on pedestal for all to read.  He truly cast's a spell and makes me dizzy, his passion for the written word is a wonderful thing.  

Thank you, this is very special!!

hahahaha omg Karen that was soo fun of you to write this lol... thanks so much for the email, I've been out wandering around as I do, who know's when I would have come back and I might have missed this as it was pushed down off the page... when i first read it this morning when i got to the part about, for you, i really did start to laugh out loud and then i paused, and then laughed again and again and again several more times because i had just recently wrote a poem called, For You, a couple days ago...it was so strange in such a wonderful way... you are really the sweetest ever.. no one has ever done something like this for me and i cant begin to tell you how much it touched my heart... a big giantttt hug for you sweet dear, you are the wonderfullest!!!... Richy Longpoem huh... hahahah oh my,, you are too funny lol

Richy, I'm glad you liked my little tribute to you and your potery. LOL! I think you were the only one who got the "Longpoem" part. LOL I now see why some of your poems were so long because I could have gone on and on. You would't believe how may times I edited the poem because I kept thinking of new things to add. You inspired me! This was great fun to do. Glad you enjoyed it.
