I'd like to melt like ice cream on a sultry August afternoon transform my body into a warm summer breeze to whisper over the trees and alight the azure heaven to tangle with the clouds, ruffle the feathers of a soaring eagle, wrest flower petals from abundant branches and leave a wake of velvet confetti strewn across the pools and moss of a deep, cool forest glade "Our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything." --William Shakespeare |

How strange, Heather. I thought you had already done all these things. It must be my imagination... or the wonderful picture next to your poem. |

Heather, your mastery of imagery just seems to keep getting better with every poem of this ilk that you write. To make someone see in their mind what you wish them to see by the use of words alone is a great achievement. *hugs* Eric. "We are the music makers and we are the makers of dreams." - Willy Wonka. |
