What sets you on fire? Not in the literal sense In the passion sense Not in the lustfull sense In the lasting sense Like the smell of shaving cream On a fresh face That you help shave While you carefully trace Each curve and shape Of the one you love Certainly It does something for me The little things Are what keeps everything From becoming Past tense To me it makes perfect sense To have a passion For the lasting scents of him |

I'm with you on this one Regina, it is certainly the little things that mean the most, not the material things......and there's nothing like the smell of aftershave I reckon! Take care.........Sue Suetang |

Ah Regina, the last one loved to watch me shave and I silently enjoyed her fascination. I would save my cleft chin till the end because she always marvelled over it and I wanted her to stay next to me as long as possible. |

"The little things Are what keeps everything From becoming Past tense" In love and in writing, and in everything I suppose . . . Nice lines! \\ |

Lovely, and I agree,there are certain things that you hold close, often very small things. And scents are a big one for me, just the smallest hint of the cologne of a loved one from many years ago, and I can feel everything again. Nice work, as always. Sandra |
