Silver and across the sky you spoke like rain in dancing drops showering liquid language slight silver kisses in play cascading persistent poetry in a butterfly drizzle of shower’s dawn my eyes met mist overtaken by exposure and when I went to speak I only heard a sigh "I wish that I was beautiful or you were half way blind" |

Such a wonderful poem, 1slick_lady. The wish, desire, wonderment is all there. You named yourself right, you are 1slick_lady. ~*~ I gave up feeling guilty just to survive a long time ago ~*~ |
