Drenching My Soul ~*Marge Tindal*~ In remembered realm of ecstasy you fell so gently into me Like rains upon the sun-parched ground drenching me in soft surround Splashing spray of moistured need caressing every limb of me Droplets clinging to my soul flooding now to overflow Rivulets gathering momentum sliding silently down the pane Muddles of puddles I release pooling there in fallen pain Lost in the memory of you Drenched to my very soul As returning memories cascade I simply lose control |

Marge~ You never cease to amaze me with your flow of words. THe imagery is beautiful my friend. I can almost feel the rain on my skin . . . Lone Wolf Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility. --William Wordsworth |

Marge, I'd love to be a raindrop Fall on you and wouldn't stop Down your forehead, off your nose To your chin my trail goes. Down your neck and out of sight Through the valley of delight Then around the belly button Screaming loudly "All or nuttin'!!" Here I come! Oh, no! Wait! Wait! The heat made me evaporate!!! |

Balladeer~ If it were raining drops of you I swear this is what I would do I'd run to the nearest umbrella shop shreiking "Make it stop ! Make it stop !" Then if that didn't suffice I'd beg the weatherman, oh so nice - Please send me the hot, hot sun to send this 'raindrop' on the run ! But then of course we all know it's really windy when you blow. No chance that you evaporated - Your dry-spell is quite overated. Get your meteorological ducks in a row and chances are wherever you go the sun will come out and really shine and that's the end of this little rhyme ! Speaking of the belly button I get to push yours for 'nuttin' ! MY PLEASURE ! Love ya' ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Marge, this one is pure perfection. I loved everything about it. "Lost in the memory of you Drenched to my very soul As returning memories cascade I simply loose control" My memories do that to me when I think of someone. "sigh" You've expressed it so beautifully! I always love your work. Thanks for sharing it with us. kat |

Marge I definately read this when I first saw it so don't know why I didn't tell you how great I think it is. A real gem, and like a gem in a perfect setting this sparkles beautifully. |
