What Is It? |

Is it something, nothing, or everything about you That draws my tongue to yours? Is it that dream I keep having of you The one where the winter wind is whipping around me And then I see your face and you make me warm again? Is it the purple skies that outline your blond,flowing hair That makes you glisten? Is it that waking kiss in the morning That sets off my whole day thinking about you? Are you some sort of sweet fruit And that is why I crave for your taste? Just what is it about you That made me comfortable Straight from the first moment you opened your cherry-lipped mouth? Is it the scent you leave upon me That finds its way to my nose Whenever I'm thinking about you? What is it? Is it everything, something, or nothing That draws my soul to yours? I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man. |

Ko-Ko - I love this - I ask myself that same thing - sometimes you just know that connection - no words . . . xxoo |

Thanks KoKo.. I had been attempting to understand a situation I am in, and I believe you have just given me the counsel I sought... Very good work. |

Thank you for the comment and the time you took to read this, as always, Albert!!!!! I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man. |
