Smile, and Soothe Me |

Smile and strip my skin to bare-puddle bleed, Gracing fine, an altar of reddest concrete. Breathe deep like desire for soul burn and rash- Scorch me as wet fire in rain-spattered clash. Smile and cleanse me with barest of touch, I opine your power- feed hungry... (often and much) Scent me with nostrils that seperate souls- I jump in heavy, don't like to be cold. Smile and warm me- my strength has all fled. Grant me your altar darkest- in soothing monotones of red. Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

This had me sighing and sighing and sighing ... Why did it end so soon. Great big hug. Jaime |

This write is like a magic egg that only gets more and more vivid with each reread. It makes we want to follow Your instruction, your command To intersperse your monotones in unison with mine, To move in synchronie, to cleanse, to warm, to breathe to vocalize, to smile. (Though it is "just" f fantasie) Yet it is mine to reread, As many times to show me I am wanted, I am loved. Did I forget to leave a smile? :-----------) I know, its just what you do But thank you!
