"who WAS that???" was the question asked, when I first heard his voice... I told my heart, "hush, now. Be still..." as if my heart had a choice. How could my heart cease its beating in face of such a sight--though fleeting? Instead it marched to double-time at just the thought his eyes meet mine... His eyes? (His eyes...) beyond describe- Chianti, smoke, exquisite rhyme... ability to stop all time, and in them I would gladly die. Does he know? Of course he does. Does he care? I know not of what discourse runs in his mind or if he thinks of me in kind. I don't believe I'm on his list. Once again...cupid missed.

If he says you're not on his list he doesn't know what a treasure he's missed!!! |

Ahh yes, do I ever relate - "I don't believe I'm on his list, once again...cupid missed" Well penned, cupid doesn't know what he is missing! Take care, Melissa~ |

This is one for my library Karen, If cupid keeps missing maybe we should put in for some glasses for his eyes might need adjusting. Rich |
