Her love for him was authentic as her Waterford crystal vase shattered into a dozen blue forget- me- nots strangled by the drought of his kiss while he made love to a younger woman so everytime she walks by that diamond cut long stem bud vase she thinks of him and she smiles as she remembers her question to him "Do you think she will look as good as me when she is my age?" "Probably Not" He said. ~V~ A poem is never finished, only abandoned. |

Ah, a question and an answer. But in his case I'm sure he wasn't planning on hanging around her that long. There seems to always be another one, with more blond hair and younger. WoW! I am very happy you finally showed your face. Adorable, bright and cheery smile and as pretty, Victoria, as a picture. (Which it is. Heh.Heh) ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |
