“Spanish Moss Mardi Gras” Sing sultry spring Purple billows fill Blackening bellows Leaf dance Sway willows Wind caress satin breast Trees wicked lash Spanish Moss Mardi Gras Silver shot streaked Sky shatters cracked Crypt flicker Gargoyles gaze grinning Gawking Taunting Smolder beckons Into shadow swirl Warm marble skin Mock mirrors Cold granite kin His eyes illuminate Pale beauty With lust luster At once, captured Trapped sweet And released Freed and again Animal ardor animates Passions’ beast Snarling howls fill Hollow echo, Pierce stillness Then stilled Passions beast Now two Cooling quiet, steams On wet moss Sing sultry spring ~wranx The shortest distance between two points... |

Different, yes thanks, Gothic, yes, by accident. You guys, (I mean this in a general, genderless way) are too kind ~wranx The shortest distance between two points... |

serenity is here. *chuckle* and my immediate thought, that your shack on the river MUST be on the Mississippi...I do not listen to weather forecasts or almanacs for the start of spring...and forget the groundhog, the closest thing to that is a nutria! No...I watch the cypress. And when they start getting those tiny green buds on those twisted arm branches? I KNOW. y'made me smile...the moss dancing is another favorite thing of mine. And I'm gonna shaddup now, before I write still yet another poem about it! Thanks wranx. It thrilled me to see this through someone else's eyes and know I'm not alone. |

 for m'yeti?And for Sue? Y'really wanna get there someday? I happen to know the way: http://www.safetgallery.com/MoundPix/pages/Neg2105.htm "The girls" and I used to go clean graves there--and you would be more than welcome. It's a gorgeous place, and has been filmed in various movies as it's so hauntingly picturesque. On top of that hill, is a huge gorgeous Oak, dripping with Spanish Moss. So, yes, someday? If you make it here before I kiss this mud goodbye, I'll have to show you. There's a swamp tour that goes by the place, much fun to waggle the breasts for the tourists. Kinda our version of "witches gone wild."  |

Karen . . . it is beautiful See I am weird like that - that reminded me of Paris . . . where Morrison is buried. When I went to Kauai . . . I had Bill stop so I could photograph the cemetaries . . . needless to say he realized he had married a crazy woman. Clean graves? But, dont go falling in love with any mud Lady . . . what was that? Knock knock . . . [This message has been edited by littlewing (07-22-2003 05:52 AM).] |
