Bedfellow My thoughts are like a weeping willow Grabbing softly at my pillow. Gracing like a snow white dove In the brilliant light of love And glistening dew glows like stars Lighting up a sky of tar Sweeping blaze into my eyes Blinding me with hypnotize. The willows have become a part Tentacles deep in my heart Visiting me a nightly seem Deep within a nightly dream I cannot separate the two The willow and my thoughts of you Both are like a dream to me Like a brew that turns to tea Punchinello and bedfellow Weeping willow and my pillow. |

Oh my goodness Sy ... I cannot pick a favorite line! The flow in this was absolutely delightful ... it was as if it sang it's own melody within my mind. Just wonderful! Best wishes, /Kit |

And glistening dew glows like stars Lighting up a sky of tar Sweeping blaze into my eyes Blinding me with hypnotize. ================================ I cannot separate the two The willow and my thoughts of you Both are like a dream to me Like a brew that turns to tea Punchinello and bedfellow Weeping willow and my pillow. ================================= thy muse returns !!! only you could come up with the image "sky of tar" and make me see the stars. very very cool Stinky. ~~~~~~~~ Meet me at midnight under the willow tree, beneath the stars, we'll have tea till three. I'll wish a wish that your dreams no longer weep ... from now on you will sleep in the star's safe keep. *winkiewinkie* |

Sunshine, Of course, JM, We tete-a-tete a world of wait And drink our tea far out at sea. The Eden gaden of our fate Is only sate to part my state The other part plays moody coy And makes a face that looks like poi. Poi, a hawaian paste food that tastes terrible. LOL Winkiewinkie Randy Stinky Love ya Thank you Noah. Victoria, Thank you sweet. |

Seymour darling boy this is utterly utterly utterly amazing. You’ve picked up the melody within and spun it into a moonbeam dream. A starry confection of delight. YOU do know I love this don’t you? I thought you’d probably pick up the subtle and delicate nuances of my rapture. I can never do subtle anyway I’m stunned into silence this is soooooooo brilliant, this really IS writingpas excellence 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 Luke 2:79 |

I wonder if weeping willows really do dream...and if they could, would they use pillows to dream on? Lovely poem Seymour! |

Seymour, I know you didn't write this for me, but is it okay if I pretend? I kept this one, as the words speak to me in a very, very special way. I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for writing this one, and Sunshine for sending it to me, as I missed it somehow, and THIS I needed to read today. If you were here I would hug you, so tell your wife I plan on giving you one for this the day I meet you The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives. |
