"Love's Escape" My love waits on the green of the newberry bush to flower my love will fall, marine, from out this bluestone turret tower Then my love will dance aloft within an eastern emerald shade heather hair of silken soft upon the moss of midnight's glade And my voice, in love, will cry strong hands on ivory nape fingers trace each orchid sigh along the skin of love's escape Rainydays |

Beautiful music this made for me Pepper "I honor the place in you, that when you are in that place, and I am in that place in me, we are in the same place" Ram Dass |

Definitely my new favorite of yours and that is no easy task and also the reason that ALL of yours go into my library. Probably one of the most beautifully written pieces I have ever read. |
