Something Old ... Something Blue ~*Marge Tindal*~  Something old, something blue borrowed memories of you now fade from my view as you walk away with somebody new That old look in your eyes that I still recognize now slowly I realize you look at her that way too as the tears come to my eyes I'm caught in memory's trace that time cannot erase these old memories embrace a time way back when I was the smile on your face Something old ~ somebody new something I've got to do get past loving you I've just got to move on hoping to find somebody new ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

The message was loud and clear and with such a wonderful beat... that I almost got my guitar out and put music to it. I like the attitude and determination in these vivid images. Sometimes we have to let go..... and go on to something better. Sometimes, it hurts but, nothing lasts forever. Bravo! I give this a  Love and peace ((~.~)) |

Forget the invitation of Mr Deer, And get your bootie on over here. Vancouver is the dating hub, Just sashay into any ole pub. Men here are a dime a dozen, I can introduce you to my cousin? Forget him if he walked Marge, The world of men is very large! He’s just another fish out to sea, I told you come and visit me!  He he Yanno, it always hurts when they hook up with someone new, even if we don't want them. Do you suppose it must be a female kinda thingee? Oh I hate to have to think at this hour it hurts. PS...beautiful graphic, just beautiful![This message has been edited by Mysteria (edited 07-16-2001).] |

Marge- yes, those offers might sound nice but, might i suggest you think twice these arizona men are hot whether summertime or not just come and visit ME, my friend we'll find a man your heart to mend and bring those muses with you too 'cuz these guys will inspire you balladeer's ok i guess but why should you settle for less when phoenix promises great things when caution to the wind one flings mysteria....bring her along would I ever steer you wrong trust me, dear, you wait and see how sweet those desert men can be i'll be waiting by the door you'll never have to frown no more  Marge, sweet friend..  I really do love this poem.  It's beautiful, and the graphic is lovely. love ya,  ~vicky "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes [This message has been edited by vlraynes (edited 07-16-2001).] |

Well, Vicky, I must say that I am filled with great elation To read your words of love with such a wondrous invitation. To be there with the three of you 'neath Arizona's sun Would be the greatest thrill that had been known to anyone And thoughts of hands carressing me with touch of Coppertone Is certainly enough to make me tingle to the bone... But while you and Mysteria were tempting Marge with thoughts Of mounties, Aztecs, fun in sun and other who-knows-whats Sweet Marge just smiled and shook her head and made her thoughts quite clear By pledging all her loving to her kind, sweet Balladeer So spread that lotion somewhere else..my body will be tanned And cared for in a tender way by Marge's loving hand.. |

Well Balladeer it looks quite clear to me, That you’ve got things in hand I see. Vicky in Phoenix, on her knees begging you, While Marge is shouting out, “I’m true blue!” Well I’ll be no part of this ménage a trios, I am not a member of some bourgeois! Look at you Sir; you’re so very fickle, Got yourself into one fine pickle. Marge, calls another her warrior indeed, Look at his written words and heed: "come join me in our glen forget about the other men and if we let our spirits rise smoke will cloud this surprise" Women like an element of surprise, If men hint, we love to improvise. Now what you’re offering is pretty clear, I believe it was “a little slice of deer?” Well look above at Soaringeagle’s last line, To me that’s sounding might fine. And as much as I love you Balladeer, His message is more loud, more clear! So Canada wins the ménage a trios, Maybe you should learn parle’ vois François.  (Hugs Deer, all in fun!) You guys are 3 funny! ~If you have a choice to sit down or dance, I hope that you will always dance~ [This message has been edited by Mysteria (edited 07-17-2001).] |

CoCoBaci~ Thank you, love. You've stumbled into the 'deer' ruts here ! We're having fun ! Mysteria~ You crack me up ! ! ! That is brilliant ... Oh ... he'll come out charging ! I love it ! *Balladeer ... Here I am defending your virginity ... er, virility and you run off and leave me ! Boo-Hoo ! Well ... I'm still betting on you to come back in here and play ! These gals are *hungry* ! ! See ya' ~*Me*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Dear Vicky, if you let me come I'll treat you like no other. I'll give you joy and happiness....you say you have a brother?? I'll fill your heart with love and I will never treat you wrong. You'll be so glad you've chosen me and I.....er, is he strong? No matter! You will be the one this balladeer adores 'Cause Phoenix may be hot but I know when it Raynes, it pours!! Mysteria, now as for you, though I would be delighted, Before you turn the offer down, please wait till you're invited! You side with some Canadian....that's no surprise...good grief! I'm sure you think that Adam was dressed in a maple leaf! My Margie doesn't need sore eagles to provide desire... She doesn't care for smoke...that girl just wants to see the fire!!  So, if you're on your best behavior, you may join us, hon.. Who knows? Perhaps you'll learn to love the taste of venison!!  you're right about one thing, Mysteria. I DO love ya all!! |

OK, Vicky...on my way. I'll tell you what we'll do.. I'll meet you at Popago Park and we'll go to the zoo Then we'll go to the Heard Museum - that is always fun Then the America West Arena to cheer on those Phoenix Suns!! They say La Fontanella has some good Italian dishes Or else we'll hit the Oyster Grill, if that fulfills your wishes. The Arizona Biltmore I am told is quite a place Perhaps I'll find a way to put a big smile on your face Tell Phoenix I am on my way and get yourself in gear Cause Phoenix ain't been done till it's been done by Balladeer! |
