~ ~ ~ Even after thirty-seven years, still so very easily You caught my breath away your slow tender kisses whiskering down my face, melting along the curve of my neck, roving to my yearning mouth, across my cheek, a nibble on the chin, my heart racing, our arms around each other. Such a tremendous love-wrapped thrill you gave with open arms, all unexpected as I walked past your chair after my shower like years of quiet countless evenings, while you write. Sweetly dissolving in your gentle spontaneity; enclosed and fusing to your body, the towel falling off my head, long hair tumbling down the other side to the floor, you kept on kissing. Adorning my soul with your love’s lustrous liquid gold. The world vanished, as I, enchanted, transformed to youth once more; became aware only of your loving touch. Your clear sapphire eyes lit mine with shining sparkling stars as you caught my breath away ~ ~ ~ [This message has been edited by Rosemary J. Gwaltney (edited 05-28-2000).] |

Musta been great ! (oh, yeah ... I suppose Lucky's grinning !) Talk about LUCKY ! Now get your clothes on and write some more poetry ! (or .....)  ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Oh, Marge, there's no one else quite like you! Okay, okay, I'll get my clothes back on, and situate myself back at my trusty computer. Thank you for catching my drift, my friend! |

Rosemary, You can write in the nude if you want. But please, don't let us interrupt! I'm beginning to wonder when you two have time for poetry. But anyway, this was beautifully written and captivating, to say the least. Liz |

Sometimes, I'm just so happy, I can't stop singing - 'er, writing - actually, both. Thank you Elizabeth, for your sweet and hilariously funny reply, thank you Marge, for your wonderful humor, and thank you "lucky" Dale, for your inspiration! (I think I'm the lucky one, sweetheart.) |

Margie, Now let them alone. Just because Rosemary gave us a little glimpse into her private world, doesn't mean she wants a poker game. She's doing just fine without any cards. Excuse the intrusion, you two. As you were. Liz |

*blushing* wow RM, I feel like a peeping tom after reading this DELIGHTFUL poem and I ENVY you this magic after so many years NO WONDER YOU & LUCKY ARE ALWAYS SO INSPIRED WONDERFUL WRITING!! take care, jm Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme, They are not measured by the commitment of time. Some emotions run too deep to be described by words, Forgiveness and understanding-remain the most beautiful words ever heard. ~Janet Marie~ "What the caterpillar calls the end ... The world calls a butterfly" ~Lao Tze Tao~ ~Butterflies are meant to be free~ |
