Ambushed By Your Love
~*Marge Tindal*~

Wanton wagons circling,
painted ponies running wild and free,
I feel the ambush of your love
coming to capture the stampede in me.

Lighting the night with passion,
arrows flaming with the fire,
sent to meet their mark
burned with scorching desire.

From the throat of the Warrior,
war whoops of delight
Taking now his Maiden fair
waiting for this night

Surrounded with the majesty
of eagles flying overhead,
it is not the ambush that I fear
but not being claimed
I would dread.

I've surely been ambushed,
taken with relished delight.
Ambushed by your love
once more on this night.

I'm too bushed to ambush you,
Dear Margie, for your love
Perhaps a push would "spur" me on..
Or else a little shove.

The cattle were a pain today,
Three wagons lost a wheel
And strong desire to light your fire's
The LAST thing that I feel!

The cook rode off 'cause he got tired
Of cooking pots of beans
And where I sit, I've got a split
In every pair of jeans.

There's Injuns up there in the hills
Deep snow along the pass
My burro died along the way
I'm dragging my poor ass.

And now you want an ambush, gal?
You're feeling kind of saucy?
Last time you wore out Paladin
And half his gol'darned posse!

I'm gonna join that Injun tribe.
That's what I'm gonna do
And if you try to ambush me
I swear to gawd I'll Sioux!!!!

You are the master...I am in awe of your talent and the stories that you tell with your words....I long to fly like you   but I'm content to merely watch you soar.

Oh, Balladeer~
You are surely the King Of Quip.
I'm laughing at the mere thought of
your 'Sioux'-ing.  
Such a renegade you are.
Very, very funny, my friend.

This was inspired by my soul-mate and
friend from Canada. So glad you enjoyed it.

Hoot~
Thank you, my friend.

Mike~

Tracie~
You are so easily pleased, my friend.

Keeps me laughing for sure.

Denise~
Thanks, babe.

Janet Marie~
So pleased you like.
Yes, that Balladeer can get a giggle

Lizzie, my friend~
Glad you enjoyed.
My 'cleverness' is inspired by
the sweetest man I've ever known ...

~Warrior, My Warrior~

You have been my inspiration,
my soul-mate, my friend ...
the 'visions' in this piece are yours,
brought to life by the tempting ideas
you place in my field of view.

A little touch of your love is all
it takes to inspire this ~Maiden~
to ride the painted pony to the page
and beyond.
We meet in the glen of musing.
I am more because you care.  

Always my greatest encourager from
day one of our 'being', I love you.
~*Your Maiden*~
