Hey folks... sorry I aint (or should I say aresent?) around too much these days or nights but.. I actually wrote something... thought I'd drop by for a drive by... huggszzzzz all.. oh... the poem: without further adieu: really -- nor more messing round: this is it right here: When she dances present stands in stillness of giant sequoias stretching from sky eternal to tender soul timeless the dancing hands of my watch beat double when she dances but I am in the duration of the dance baptized born again each tick a sin rolled back and bathed in amber tresses I am not any more than any man nor any less hers, I am when she dances When she smiles the passing years retire in the solitude of amber eyes pervasive, wise a welcome sight her smile When she touches guileless flesh turns guilty knees to knees to fingertips on dancing thighs She speaks and strains of serenity spill from amber lips to eager ears replenishing my empty soul a sigh a laugh and hello turns to valediction again too soon but still she dances in my heart in my soul she whispers in my mind she smiles and so do I |

nice to see you... amber? hazel? brown on the surround of eyelids dreaming, voices drift by time unseaming, passioned on a single phrase, poetry is our amaze, the dance of words upon a stage..... a whispering of sighs lost in the whys and laughs and half caraffs of empty wine. such is the narrow on the brink of time's remiss. to you, no wings can sanctify the eyes not seen with hues in blend of that or this........ (sorry, i rambled... it's just me.... .... your poem is awesome....hope all is well with you.. good to see you again ) |

When I dance The glassware rumbles As I stumble From place to place With lack of grace. When I sing Neighborhood dogs howl And my cats yowl Causing a riot As they pray for quiet. What? Your poem wasn't about me? *G* Never mind, then... I won't even tell you it's great. *G* Welcome back, leather feathers. *S* |

Wooo! Bewitched, bothered and bewildered! One powerful lady, and a lucky man to have been inspired by her! |
