Taunting Lines those tender, sweet and little lines simply played a tease and taunt so she left one night to go and look for her estranged but pulling want she had a special, chary feeling one sense he left in her, appealing one that might have suggested "haunt" this strange and little seeking want in last of winter's blowing wind she felt the tug of this and then she went seeking for the pull searching for the want in full he had left a note on the wind telling her he'd come, again telling her he'd gone to sea as her want became a fantasy the waves, they crashed as they broke along the ghost white line of shore telling her brutally, in the break that he'd be back, nevermore her footprints, small, in the sand along the path, they'd held hands now she felt the pain of dolor and her face went white in color and in her search, she felt the want and wept of lines that teased a taunt so evermore she would then just be a haunt of line, his loving fantasy 03.14.01 |

...woven throughout is a lovely sentimental, haunting and mystical feel...the reader is lead gently through the mind of this woman, and those otherwise inacessible places are revealed...thank you for taking us there! Jellybean King |
