Poetry your words stir me the places to fill the void when winter leaves it’s raw icy edges on windows scratching at the glass to feel the hope of warmth the green of me in spring to turn the handle tasting unquenchable liquid language calming childlike fears of darkness of voices reading lyrics aloud to travel places far and unknown in a dialect I understand resting safely in the strength of words tightly holding and carrying me tiny within its inspired voice to dance unafraid on stars and step on the ladder of clouds resting in a shadows shade "I'm so hard to handle |

Amazingly I read all three of you and sometimes can only hear one heart beat. How about a trio write, and make it a LONG one? Would be a beautiful story to be told if all three of you wrote it! Your words stir me too, not in Karen's way, but a nice way, LOL p.s. I am having trouble packing for Orlando - like what on earth does 90 - feels like - 111 mean? Today it is 61 here and I am cookin! Please tell me that is something else besides 50 degrees higher than here, right? |

I would adore to write with you two.. Although my art is more Wyeth where you two are Degas, Monet, Seraut. I want to learn to write in your impassioned, free style.. sometimes I feel my work is so.. dry, mechanical. |

Oh my, I adore your poetry, especially love the turn of the handle and all that it implies. It is always such a treat to read you, slick one. |
