Through the Eyes of Rhapsody How do I play this sentient song like cotton sheets with sunshine’s perfume cooled by evening Take the Johnny-jump-up in the crack of the highway nodding with the passing car testing the purity of innocence Mix in light pouring through a tiny hole in the shade and touching the babies fuzzy head with a halo of light Then add the gray catfish quick and precise through twilight water in and out of mossy fabric consuming daylight’s last bejeweling Then touch it with a pinch of tomorrows mellow dawn toss in the sound of mourning dove with an apple’s crisp bursting flavor Then take a smile and tuck it soft into the folds of dreams and feel a lover’s touching tender Now all the wonder that is a minute warm in bosomed sweet fragrance where loosened hair pours across the pillow to catch each breath in passion’s touch and that is a beginning ------- rewrite from 9-00 |

This is truly beautiful Martie, the johnny jump ups, I could see them. People say they cannot get inspired and yet there is so much all around us to inspire us, and I see you take full advantage of that, lovely poem. floria Floria |

Martie you took some of my favorite things like the smell of fresh sheets, the fuzz on our baby's head, etc. etc. well see how I say them, then there is Martie's way of saying them, that makes me sit here and simply just sigh! ~* Imagination is more important than knowledge *~ |

"Then touch it with a pinch of tomorrows mellow dawn toss in the sound of mourning dove with an apple’s crisp bursting flavor Then take a smile and tuck it soft into the folds of dreams and feel a lover’s touching tender Now all the wonder that is a minute warm in bosomed sweet fragrance where loosened hair pours across the pillow to catch each breath in passion’s touch and that is a beginning"   (smiles) Awwwwwwww, this is sooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, just the thought of lying my head on my pillow and feeling the sun seep through the blinds with the croon of a dove makes me smile! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is absolutely lovely! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

I love the way you turn even the most mundane things into poetry. Then add the gray catfish quick and precise through twilight water in and out of mossy fabric consuming daylight’s last bejeweling Beautifully done, Martie  copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |
