Once In A Lifetime Down and out, but not Beverly Hills __Just a tiny town, nothing special, no frills All alone for the now, was the first holiday __Filled with an empty, as thoughts went astray So ~Victoria, so sweet, invited me, too __To travel the west, in skies aloft blue My first, you do know, from the East Coast towards West __On the flight, I put everyone to my talking test You see, I can be friendly to the youngest of all __To any and every, both short and the tall No matter the company, bet some wish that they knew __How to drown out my words, while flying the blue(8 hrs) My first seating partner, worked for the CIA __Guarded Hillary's Chelsea, at school and at play So we expressed our beliefs,and the vote that had been __Wondering when, the finals would be in... At the switch in Phoenix, my new seat was next __To a very nice gentleman who was reading a text But I interrupted, you see, I hate planes __So I talk till time runs out, and we've landed again... The scenery was beautiful, and the lights were amassed __My eyes were lit up with reflections I passed Very new to me, flying, I shuttled to hotel __Anticipating my meeting, hoping ~V~, I could tell Took a moment, a phone call, the intercom too __But no one responded, so I walked the halls through Around the last corner, on a bench, there was she __Geena Davis, I thought, she jumped up greeted me To my room we first went, then down to the games __Where I placed my first twenty, and the money then came Won a thousand with sevens, I was calm, but I smiled __Yes, I was thinking, this was worth all the miles... We laughed and enjoyed, as we played through the night __Whatever she touched, turned to silver, that's right! Miss Geena and I, had a ball those few days __And to top it all off, someone blind had to say (must have been blind anyway *S*) She thought I appeared like Mariah Carey __Well!! my hair was a bit lighter then, but the age, blind was she Said my ~Smile~ that was it, so ~Victoria and I __Were the treasures of The Nugget, as we passed people by Giggling like schoolgirls, wherever we went __We impressed, we had fun, we created an event We both left Las Vegas, as winners you see __We both broke "even", but the treasure to be Was the meeting of each, and a friendship in "real" __From an online of poetry, from the warmth words can feel So my first trip out West, bonded two, as new friends __Memories held special, from beginning to end.... thank you Geena *s* huggzz ~Wynter [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (edited 12-19-2000).] |

I recall Victoria's post! This was wonderful! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Wynter and Victoria, what a great way to advertise an IRL friendship. Loved the couplets. Kethry Religion is for people frightened about going to hell - Spirituality is for people who have been there. Anon. |
