fragrance of rose fills the air one hundred candles glowing i pray before this night is through true love i will be knowing my heart is doing somersaults impatient from the waiting sweet promise of a night with you my soul's anticipating harvest moon lights eastern sky while twinkling stars now hover all is perfect...scene is set now enter passionate lover a cast of one, i take the stage as glaring spotlight beams and once again, my leading man is only in my dreams ~vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes |

well I dont know exactly what the challenge from Margie was ... but it inspired a beautiful poem in you. sometimes the fantasy we create in our mind is much better than the real thing... lovely writing Vicky...perfect imagery.. I could see it all in my mind.. seems I've had the same fantasy myself... but then I guess many of us "girls" do. take care jm |

Hi everybody...first of all, i guess i should explain the challenge. this was not a posted challenge. i had mentioned to marge that i am a sucker for a good challenge, so she more or less called my bluff...lol. she supplied me with the rhyming words... knowing glowing waiting anticipating lover hover beams dreams and she told me to run with them...no particular form or style...just whatever came out of my pen, and this was the result. feel free to accept the challenge as well. i'm sure marge won't mind, and i would love to see what you come up with. ![]() Denise- thank you so much. really glad you like. ![]() Ron- thanks for the encouraging words. glad you enjoyed. ![]() Marge- my challenging friend...lol. this was so much fun!! thank you! ![]() really glad you like the results. ![]() ((((((((hugs)))))))) Mark- oh you sweet cowboy...thank you so much. ![]() ![]() ![]() hmmmmm...now lets see...about that coded message...lol. ![]() dg- so...let me get this straight...does that mean you like this one?? lol ![]() thank you my friend. ![]() really glad you like. ![]() Janet Marie- so right you are...often the fantasy is much better than the real thing... but i'm hoping and believing that's not ALWAYS the case. ![]() thanks so much, my friend. glad you enjoyed. ![]() Irish Rose- so glad you enjoyed this. feel free to join in on the challenge. ![]() have fun. ![]() Kethry- glad you enjoyed this. ![]() the instructions for the challenge are at the beginning of this post. have fun with it. ![]() Elizabeth- thanks so much. ![]() i'm so glad you enjoyed this. ![]() Charisma- really glad you like this. thanks for the kind reply. ![]() Holly- wow...thank you so much for the kind reply. ![]() this was a fun challenge for me, and i'm really glad you enjoyed the results. ![]() thanks again everybody!! -vicky "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes |

Vicky~ Me again ... just reading the lovely responses. You did a superb job with those little rhymies. And I would be tickled to see anyone else come up with something on it. Have a go at it, friends. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
