Purgatorial Incarceration

0 posted 1999-10-10 06:14 AM


I woke up this morning,
my mind in a haze.
A reocurring condition,
as always these days.

I ran to the mail,
to see what was there.
Finally it came!
Her letter was here!

With trembling fingers,
I caressed the seal.
Nervous to open it,
but away I did peel.

I read the inscription,
written in lovely black ink.
A sweet song from her soul,
took my heart to the brink.

It finally opened,
so I reached deep inside.
And pulled out the letter,
in which pictures did hide.

I held in my hand,
the face of my love.
Her green eyes so bright,
next to skin like a dove.

Cute tiny red nose,
(a little too much sun.)
But as I sat staring,
I knew she was the one.

I've told myself before,
she has captured my heart.
But now that I've seen her,
I can't stand that we're apart.

Oh my !!...You're in big trouble, you know the symptoms: loss of appetite, gazing at stars, lack of concentration and lots of romantic poems, oh and a smile as wide as the ocean...

It's great to see you both bouncing so much.

HUGS both

Your present inspiration is, I think, your best yet. Ride the wave my friend and enjoy it.

Smiling here....I'm glad she's beautiful Chris, but I don't think it would have mattered one bit had she not been. Her beauty lies far more than skin deep. Now start making those reservations!!!!!

Christopher, I share your excitement! Doesn't it feel really "cool" to have trembling hands again...I think I dropped the phone 3 times, before I was able to untangle myself from the cord, and dial his # corrrectly.....LOL My deepest happiness for you, my friend...and Severn, she knows she's lucky.....(grin) Makes me want to see her face !!

What a sweet relief. And you think you had problems waiting - I was in fits! Ever my heart is yours alone (and the rest of me...).
These words are 'absolutely beautiful...'
