Degrees Of Love ~Marge Tindal~ So cold you'd surely think this was the frozen earth. The icy chill of a heart with no warmth. Along comes a new love and the temperature's rising. A few degrees make the difference and that's not surprising. Slowly with care, the heart starts to wear the signs of fire blazing everywhere. The temperature is rising in this heart of mine. I like the heat, it suits me fine. A love to warm this heart in my chest. Of all the degrees ... I like best ! ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Wow Marge! Go for the heat sweetie, although how that heart of yours could get any warmer is beyond me. |

Now, Denise- You're turning the thermostat up way too high! Corrine- Sizzling? Well, it would be a welcomed change from the cold, huh? ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

That's a cute one, Marge...temperature is going in reverse here, what does that mean? Sherry "The finest qualities of our nature, like the bloom on fruits, can be preserved only by the most delicate handling. Yet, we do not treat ourselves nor another thus tenderly." ~Henry David Thoreau |

Hey, Marge! I'l like to be the fire That fills that heart with hot desire. I'd like to be that red-hot flame To burn you up and feel the same. Please let me warm your chilly night With new degrees of Fahrenheit And chase away the evening chill With passion 'till you've had your fill. Fire rescue needs to be on call If I'm allowed to give my all The sun's hot spots will pale beside The heat I'll make you feel inside. We'll have cumbustibility If you will give that heart to me So what say, Marge? Unlock that latch Let's see if we can make a match! |

Dear Marge, Fantastic poem! Piles of fun! You've had Dale and me in stitches of laughter tonight! We didn't know you had it in you! Go for it, girl! My husband sings ballads to me - the likes of which could not be beat - I fell head over heels as a teenager, and here I am, so many years later, and still melting in puddles at his feet! |

Now, Sam ... Didn't anyone tell you that my second profession is as a pyrotechnist? Fire-breathing dragons are right up my alley. Honey, I don't TAKE lessons, I GIVE 'em ! Rosemary and Dale- Well life must be producing 'cabin fever' if you can't find something more amusing than little ole me ! (But, thanks) Glad to know I'm the subject of discussion and laughter in your home and in your hearts. Thanks ... now, throw another log on the fire ! So nice to sit at the hearth of a friend. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Well what have we here Not only a nice poem But (blush) a hot hot lady too Just check your temperature control Marge How sweet The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |
