The N’th Degree She lifts me up to heights unknown From places that I felt as stone From feelings that were agony To moments that are ecstasy She lifts me up to see dreams true To sights and fantasies of view Has wind my wings to fly about Has cured me of my every doubt. Still holds my thoughts against a fall And told me I was ten feet tall. Has never missed a single beat Spread rose petals beneath my feet. She sits a throne within my head And rules my life from dawn to bed. She swears to me this N’th degree And that is how I’ve come to be. She’s half alive and half contrive But without her I can’t survive. |

Chuckling here at the 'half alive and half contrive'... I love it, Sy... We put our love on a pedestal for sure - sometimes that pedestal is contrived by our minds for sure... but you're right - we need it for survival...  |

So apparently it's not all of your imagination but a bit of fascination mixed with a bit of machination after all... Ah Sy - you MAKE our mornings! |

An "ideal" explanation, Sy -- another one to which I can relate. -MVS "It's all in the details -- the Big Picture always takes care of itself." |

Has wind my wings to fly about Has cured me of my every doubt. Still holds my thoughts against a fall And told me I was ten feet tall.

She’s half alive and half contrive But without her I can’t survive. ====================================== My OH My ... *sigh* OH Sy (ohhowilovewhenyouwritelikethis) TIMES TEN!! This poem makes me giddy  ~~~~~~~ And thou deserves no less than this Days of joy ... nights of bliss Take thou place upon thy throne Erected from gold and marbled stone I'll place crowned jewels upon thy head Wrap thee in robes of shimmering thread Worship thee on pedestals high Write thy name across the sky Place petaled offerings at thy feet Grown in Eden's garden of elite Come before thee on bended knee Serve thee sweet tea of ecstasy Give to thee ... the moon and sun the stars afar ... each and every one Honor thee in verse and rhyme Etch thy name in sands of time We'll go beyond the N’th degree Fly with me to infinity *winkiewinkie*  me[This message has been edited by Janet Marie (edited 09-06-2001).] |

Sy The N'th degree is pretty high reached by bird or butterfly and maybe angel wings of gold could make the feelings you have told but whoever gives you such great bliss in my book deserves a kiss |
