when next I am touched… I will recall you your smile that drawn out look of lingering in your eyes that spark that alighted briefly right…there… in your touch electric electric is not enough to express quivering not enough to elucidate anticipation at the exhilaration which remains right…here when I recall the lingering of your eyes when next I am touched you will hear my sigh Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Gasp-inducingly beautiful.Full of longing of desire.Reminded me of Wagner's 'Tristan and Isolde'. 'Humankind cannot bear too much reality' T.S.Eliot |

The longing and passion leap out of these beautiful words, through my eyes and into my heart. Now who is magic, my dear friend? Follow your dream! |

Kari I somehow missed this the first time round, so like Bo Peep, I've found the lost sheep, and have brought it home. And even if I hadn't missed it the first time round I would have done so. I missed you today kid, I really have, I know you've been busy so I'll soothe my soul with this. You know it's wonderful don't you, well it is as always and I love it too. Take care Majestic Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
