As The Poet Yearns ~*Marge Tindal*~ Camera fades in She sits at the desk Pen illuminated in hand by dimly lit screen Where is the magic that makes it work He enters the room and the magnetism stirs He sits at the desk opposite hers The ink splashes between them in candled shadows of the indigo skies Between them now the words burn slowly Flickering with exhaling of sighs Pen me when the evening shadows have danced beyond the hill Write me while the night shivers with song of whippoorwill Cover me in passionate phrases Lay your body next to mine I'll be the dream poet brought to life Stretching this night beyond all rhyme When tangerine peeks over the horizon love has taken hold of this sunrising Pens lay poised as if in flight Passionate poet phrases penned parchment in the night |

The ink splashes between them in candled shadows of the indigo skies Between them now the words burn slowly Flickering with exhaling of sighs Pen me when the evening shadows have danced beyond the hill Write me while the night shivers with song of whippoorwill Cover me in passionate phrases Lay your body next to mine I'll be the dream poet brought to life Stretching this night beyond all rhyme =================== YOWZA...... margie-girl this is so sensual and poetic... simply enchanting... "Stretching this night beyond all rhyme" MY OH MY do I LOVE that line ... mmm mmm mmm.. love your poets pen when its passionate ![]() later-spicy-gator love ya me |

"Pen me when the evening shadows have danced beyond the hill Write me while the night shivers with song of whippoorwill" Marge while I loved the entire poem - this verse sang to me beyond measure (amazed you could keep pen in hand when he entered the room ~G~) |

Karilea~ Glad you enjoyed the juicy color. I can guarantee you that when the sun rises over the lake it matches the color of the tangerines on some of my citrus trees. Big smiles here. ![]() ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
