there's something you should know |

You play off key, polish the ivories- weep, write and still, nothing. Strum the blues on your '57 Gibson. ….sit on the sunporch, play subtle notes from a song you had written. It was "Felicity" remember? Then one day you decide you'll play a violin. We meet and soon hear a fever pitch we've never heard before. But before you play me, there's something you should know. I want to be fine-tuned first. That's right, bring the music to life- gradually. I am a sonata. I am a violin but I'm no fiddle.. when I arch my back? I want to be played like a Stradivarius... photo:www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/bbcsso/images/violin_lady. -befriend yourself and you will never be alone- [This message has been edited by The Lady of Shallot (edited 11-01-2001).] |

True words of how to treat any Lady. Death comes not when we cease to breathe, but when we cease to dream. |

Hello, Lady...your picture was not coming through, so I "fixed" it for you - hope you don't mind... but it has nothing over the words... well done! |

well done, both picture and words..great combination and yes, a woman should be fine tuned......what a great metaphor for foreplay. If I interpreted you correctly? |

I want to be fine-tuned first. That's right, bring the music to life- gradually. I am a sonata. Is there any other way to play such a fine piece? Thank you for the strength and beauty of this today. |

Interloper, this one just sort of wrote itself. Thank you! Robert, yes foreplay of course, but well, can’t say that really I’m too shy (was) thank you for replying. Nancy, most men know, thanks for the neat notes! and for replying. Duncan, thank you for the kind words. The woman who wrote this has been released and she’d like to thank the person who did it…. someday maybe she will be able to. -befriend yourself and you will never be alone- |
