Or So Those sunny days that caused such pause in squinted gaze at loose faux pas of clothing skimped have dropped the jaws and left my eyes still burning ten years or so I’m learning it’s great to venture on a beach where dreams are kept still well in reach and body parts perked like a peach have not yet turned to stubble but only shout it’s trouble when times do blot out all our dreams that we had dreamt while in our teens and what was then went unforeseen ten years ago or so.

Thank you so so so much Lori, Margherita, and Kit for your reading and your kind and uplifting replies. Thank you. Thank you for noticing my softer side, my melancholy and acceptance sides, and, also, my attention to form and detail sides that you've jointly discovered in my writing and, again, I do, I do appreciate each of you and each of your replies so very very much. Thank you. |
