All the Way to Forever


As you walk through the trees
and underbrush of the forest
you come to a narrow path that will
lead you to a place the locals call
the enchanted bamboo valley;
rumor has it that kung fu fighters
like to train in this part of the forest,
as if they gain some kind of mysterious powers
from the beauty, grace and strength of the bamboo's,
still the best part of the story is that there is
a beautiful lady fighter, that dresses all in white,
and should you meet her she will challenge you to
a fight, and should you win that fight she will
visit you every night and place a tender kiss upon
your lips, a kiss that is so special that you
will desire it for the rest of your life,
and this kiss will only be yours and no other man's,
and they smile when they say this part,
"All the way to forever."

What an awesomely lovely story James! I guess that's what tough love means!

If I were more than I am, I'd see things differently instead of the same all the time.

I guess we have to be careful what we wish for "all the way to forever" but the kiss from a beautiful lady for only one man can't possibly be a bad thing.

Feels like I'm reading a fairy tale where the prince kisses the beautiful lady and they live happily after. Poets can dream on too and be fanciful
