What I want -
a moment,
perfect timbre,
a singular instance
of focus
during which
I feel You -
bereft of
wrappings,
a flavour
most
intimate.

This.

Your free verse is perfection, Corinne. I'm inspired.

over the rain-green grass,
and the sun drips honey.""

Keep it short and stunning. Well done!

Wow, Bill, thank you for such supportive words of encouragement!

JM, thank you, dear lady, glad to see you here again!

Kethry, thank you, so kind of you to say that!

Magic

What I have -
in these dreams,
savored moments,
sharply focused
when waking
and I find
that with you -
real life is
boundless,
far beyond
dreams'
dimensions.

Magic.

Splendid writing!!!
Inspired me (is about me)


Feeling This.

twisted
is her mind-
warped
is her body-
only you
can be the one
to unwrap
the ongoing feelings
inside her
only you
can give her
the yesterdays
of tomorrow...
