This poem of little tidbits is of Rosemary's telling, in her responses to our poetry. Her endearing candor has been a source of delight and quite a few chuckles. Thanks for your sweetness, Rosemary. Skinny Dipping With Rosemary She’s throws her garments on the grass And slowly slithers in The sparkling creek churns happily And dances round her skin The waters are as clear as glass Cool liquid still prestine While Dale sits by with sparkling eye Devouring the scene She bathes in showers gentle splash But instinct begs for more Then nonchalantly drops her towel Upon the hardwood floor Leaving pure imagination Blowing in the wind While Dale sits by with eager eye That slowly takes it in They sit and write their poetry With parchment and a plume Beside the flowing waters In the thralls of honeymoon Aesthetic recall of sheer joy Was always my belief What wondrous bliss sparks reminisce Of just one dangling leaf The things that dance inside her mind They are of passions brew Experiences the likes of which Are known to very few What deeds of dare that she would share The best with likes of us The laughs I reap from her mystique Are really quite a plus So throw restraint into the wind And let your hair hang down Enjoy the day in every way And we’ll just hang around Way to go, Rosemary! Love ya, Liz |

Oh, Liz...This is lovely! You have captured some of her essence here with your poem and Dale's too. They are going to be so pleased ...I can just see them now, Rosemary discovering it first and reading it out loud to Dale. Smiles to you, my sweet friend. |

Lizzie~ When Rosemary sees it ... she's going to be thrilled ... Dale will smile knowingly. I loved the voyeurism. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Hey, Liz! Imagine my surprise at being wakened at six something by my darling husband in paroxysms of roaring laughter, sitting at his computer some six or eight feet from our bed! "What on earth is funny?" I ask sleepily, and when he tells me, between gasps, still laughing, what Elizabeth has written, I have to come out and see! Now that you've got me giggling so hard my eyes are watering, I just have to tell you thank you! We're both going to bed now, with smiles from ear to ear. He was on one of those all-night writing things, and I gave up my own writing about three, and crawled in. Good thing we don't have little children any more. Getting a weeeee bit older has very distinct advantages! Thanks again, for the best laugh we've enjoyed in quite some time! And that's saying a lot, because we do a lot of laughing together. But you, my friend, take the cake! You're good, Elizabeth; you're really good! |

Liz - Finally! An easy decision today - I agree with Rosemary (and everybody else) that you are one amazin' lady. What a talent! Loved every line and twist. |
