She liked cotton White And linen Fine. Old-fashioned lace To lie on swell of breast Enticing With poets shirt Veed. I only remember warm days Though the seasons changed And flannel longs Took the place of nude Until the covers Found us both Wrapped in Comfort. We knew soft sunlight Streaming floors With long shadows And evenings Of t-shirt Teasing Always cotton Sheets fine counted threads Numbered our sighs While caressing the bare As we wrote in hieroglyphs On memory Today I stepped from shower Looking for those glyphs Trying to remember What they meant. |

That's the way most of the pills I take are described?...Hell, I don't look for what they cure...just what good side effects they may deliver.... |

Soft, this is soft. I picture neutral colors - sand, muslin, earth. But, nearly always, there is sadness to close your poems, dear one. Hmmm, I'm wishing you a Hollywood ending someday. Cor |

"always cotton" "sheets fine counted threads" Have we met? Damn! You sure can write. I know, you just observe.... The two things I love most in life... you put in this poem; cotton and the highest thread count sheets I can afford... Though sad, at least this one didn't make me cry....hardly... Enjoying your poetry tremendously. Pat ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

(smiles) I suppose to recognize the glyphics again you just have to read it in a tangible sort of way by feeling deep down to the heart of it! (sigh) Sometimes it can be so exhausting and you wonder if you'll ever feel the same way again, this is very heartfelt, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ron, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
