Conjugation I touched.... hunger drew me into hunger's needs freedom released me into freedom's chains I was only free to release tears. She touches.... hunger softens into yearning's dreams freedom sings and captivates my core I am basking in release of tears. We will touch.... dreams will fold themeselves into love's fare sated core will reach into my nows I will bathe in depths of sweet release we will taste the sweetness of our tears. © RAM |

I like this better than so many other conjugations I have done! Elizabeth "He have his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!" -The Crucible |

Thanks, Elizabeth, Corinne, Cerenity, Hoot, Cheryl Corinne, thanks for providing the definitions. While we're at it, con·ju·ga·tion 1 a: a schematic arrangement of the inflectional forms of a verb At the risk of deemphasizing the romance of this piece, my original intent was to use more verb forms than I did, but they started sounding monotanous. English tends to be a bit more boring than some other languages, relative to the variety represented in the conjugation of verbs. So, I kept it relatively simple. In retrospect, I'm glad I did. Thanks again, gang. [This message has been edited by RAM (edited 04-03-2000).] |
