If I could only be that way? I'd wear a lacy bit of dress- and curl my lashes, blush my cheeks, and leave lip-prints on handkerchief... I'd dust the shadows of the moon and make my eyes look wide and you could see each part of me except the part I've hid inside... I'd learn to giggle--pull away my hand from yours in eager'd roam. An art of jiggle--walk away with toss of hair, and pouting moan. I could play most eagerly if that is all you want from me. But oh I've so much more to say-- listen, love--to dawn of day. Eager, I, to thoughts of mime-- I count the motions, pantomine. Forgetting now the dance sublime, I search for clues within your eyes. |

ahhh we have much too much to give than just a sway of hips or a taunt from lips... I liked this one very much *s... ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |

*grinning* I'll have to place my vote with Kathleen! Excellent write, Serenity! To hold tomorrow we must first be willing to let go of yesterday. |

I know baby... it sounds REAL simple and easy when its in rhymes ... ya know I love this one... very cool ryhme and imagery. and the expressions are pure sen ... and that equals pure poetry. "But oh I've so much more to say-- listen, love--to dawn of day." indeed me twin ... indeed hugs me sweet me Some find subtlety in strangers some find subtlety alone Your eyes,you see everything my eyes,I see its all together now and I know. ~candlebox~ |

It is frustrating when we have so much to offer and the other seems blind to who we are...James |

I've often wished to be this same woman. But then, I can't keep my thoughts to myself.. and can't stand men who LIKE this kind of trophy on their arm..so? I'm me. Alone, but me. |

So I'm sittin here trying to figure out what the hell I'm supposed to do with a "" constructive critique request. LOL I'll be honest with you, miss perfect you just described might be fun to play around with for a few days, but I imagine I'd get bored with her and go in search of something a little more intelligent, y'know... *grins* Lovely lovely write |
