Here you go Sunshine . . . Don't know for sure if I captured her essence she is so elusive. <><><> I encircle my arms around Seawillow's allure clasp her hand within both of mine bring it to my cheek the world ceased to move a quietness has invaded my thoughts the violent crashing of the waves made no sound instead brings sachet fragrance unto my senses the moon, a harvest one nearly touches the water dances on the waves foamy crest I erased her distant smile with kisses meant to disarm her lethal charm ah, but Seawillow cannot be beguiled so easily she will be the one to choose the time and the how Seawillow named from the waters' deep queen of Davy Jones' locker bows only to Neptune God of the sea willow finishes her name from will-o-the-wisp giving fair warning to all who would posses her of her unattainable and utter elusiveness she appeared to me one day back in Savoie's Swamp as a shimmering, hovering light beckoning me with estrogen-charged mist I am her toy yes, yes of this I am aware to sup from her mysterious gaze I gladly give my life for that is Seawillow's quest another mortal to be sent below where the brine and baubles lie she . . . she accepts my lips pressed down upon hers then pushes away from me a groan in her throat run, she said, flee from this place instead I step toward her she clasps her hands o'er her breasts a lonely tear smears her frozen face Go away, please, my darlin' I'll come to you in a fortnight am I dreaming am I insane has the one I'm smitten with above any other just said to me . . . I'm fearful of interpreting her words but I am her toy so I turn around began the long walk with a questioning heart back to Savoie's Swamp . . . and the raven said, )!(%!~@~#&$ . . .

You've started an epoch...there will be many more stories of Seawillow, I'm sure... follow her, for elusive though she be, she has many gifts yet to unfold. Ahh...it will be Christmas, every day!  Thank you, Jerry! |

Thanks, Sunshine, yeah I'm kinda feeling my way here. Have a few thoughts to decipher concerning the ode, epic, whatever. Appreciate the gentle shove toward "the rest of the story." Hi Lori. Good to see you here and thank you for the nice compliment. Yes, we all need a little sunshine from time to time. . . . and the raven said, )!(%!~@~#&$ . . . |

Yes, the fatal attraction does seem to titillate us, doesn't it? Who know what the poor guy who has yet to have a name will find in the fortnight. Thank you, Margherita , for being here. . . . and the raven said, )!(%!~@~#&$ . . . |
