~ Butterscotch Sky ~ Margie girl’s title is a Butterscotch sky It brings all manner of images to my eye I can visualise it all quite clearly The sugar sweet pictures of my fantasy Beneath a butterscotch sky of toffee hue I wander beside the lake with you This lake is filled up with chocolate milk As smooth on my tongue as liquid silk Under that open butterscotch sky No worries or troubles cause me to sigh I float along on a cloud of toffee cream Then sink my teeth into this chocolate dream The flowers in this magical place delight They are lollies flavoured with sunlight The grass beneath me is green coconut ice And over there are some marshmallow mice Beneath butterscotch sky I wander free There’s nothing but joy in this fantasy There’s a hint of peppermint in the air This is a heavenly haven for us to share The rainbow that arches over my head Scatters sweeties coloured yellow and red There’s a gingerbread house in ice cream lane And the windows are chocolate milk and plain Marsha To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

Looks like the Gingerbread Man's house doesn't stand a plum pudding of a chance... Where's Willie Wonka when you need him? |

Marsha, a colored confection of purest delight but if you'd eaten all that you'd be sick half the night enough sweetest wonder to draw me again to overindulgence that would give me a pain Marsha my Mushy your sweetness is sure though I'.d rather the chocolate was not milked but pure and the hint of the best that's yet to come I'll have my coffee flavoured with rum Beautiful~ and sweet! Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown [This message has been edited by Kethry (edited 12-03-2001).] |

Circe darling girl thank you, it is pretty isn’t it, Kari says I’m showing off, she’s right I am. Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Keth darling sister of my soul, okay yes I admit it I am showing off. But only because I’m so pleased I finally got it fixed. Thank you for your assistance darling girl Love and warm stuff As always Slushy Noah darling boy thank you so much, and may love and light shine ever on you Love and warm stuff As always Mushy ‘Deer dear heart, Mmmmm is it delicious? Thank you. I know I’m showing off, but still I like to play and this really was just playing . Thank you muchly You can take a bite out of my gingerbread house anytime Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Margie girl, this is my playing about, I’m really pleased you like it but as I say it’s not a serious contender. Not with some so called friends outmatching me at every flick of their pens. I mention no names me, but the words perfidy and unfair advantage spring to mind. I really do want that book Okay I promise I won’t try bribery I know it won’t work Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Sandra darling girl thank you muchly As always Mushy ;clapping: Seymour my friend thank you so very very much As always Mushy SC thank you so much, that is a very sweet thing to say As always Mushy Carol Luna thank you soooooooo very much I really do appreciate it As always Mushy Lyra darling girl I’ll send you a crib sheet of how to’s that should help, however this was my first attempt at colour and size so I’m pleased. Which is the only reason it is here. It’s just me showing off. The real show off poem will appear on the 12th, that will be splendiferous. I know modest aren’t I? Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

Marsha, A perfection of confection! Who needs a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, when the rainbow itself is the true prize. Can I be your candy man? Roger |
