I dreamed I took your photograph So you could be exposed Wearing nothing but that wrap And those pantyhose I dreamed I saw your name in lights Emblazoned cross the sky The neon current was a sight A gas to keep you high I dreamed I fought a minatour To take care of your bull While on the sidelines you had soared A blimp both round and full I dreamed I took an X-ray shot So I could see through you Until the film got very hot That is the thing you do I dreamed I crushed the petalled flower To give you much more spring I dreamed I held you in the bower And promised anything I dreamed of you when I awoke In love with you - and then you spoke Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.

YAY!!! Awwwwwww, I love a happy ending, sweet friend, the ending is so very lovely and shows love can be even more magical when it is real, while the dreams continue to go on to delight us and remind us! (kiss on cheek) This is a fabulous challenge reply, sweet friend, I LOVE IT, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kethry, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Keth darling sister of my soul and singer of the night’s stars, yet again darling heart you have written the perfect poem, flows like a dream, words etched in gold and the rhyme is utterly utterly divine. YOU know I love this one don’t you. Stunning piece of writing from you, utterly outstanding. Wonderful writing absolutely wonderful, you always have the power to paint the flowers within my soul and scoop the joy out of the moment and write it down Excellent may your pen never run dry of hearts ink, and may I always be there see the delight of your write. You know I love this darling heart it is wondrous 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 |
