come to my valley, lady tree be my forest in mornings let me climb your tall limbs and touch your knotty places wear my hands on your fruit let me savor the ripe ends and the slick of syrup that seeps from my manhand touch leave your leaves of covering on the bank of our stream give me the bare of you don't fear my eyes there but let them climb between the places you have parted let them fill the shadows that whisper secret dreams come to my valley, lady tree ©Dark [This message has been edited by Dark Stranger (05-16-2002 05:30 AM).] |

DS what a sensuous and beautiful piece this is, it delights my eyes, and tickles my senses with visions of heat and fire. Never do you fail to show your artistry and superb form in writing, metre and rhyme. Utterly utterly fabulous writing skills. You have to know I utterly utterly love this one   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 |

  (smiles) Awwwwww, this is sooooo passionately beautiful, sweet friend, this made me feel like a little boy again reading this; I know this feeling too where you fall in love and you feel like that happy child again in your heart climbing trees and performing somersaults on the lawn when you're in love (big hugggssssss) This is soooooo lovely, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

"wear my hands on your fruit let me savor the ripe ends and the slick of syrup that seeps from my manhood touch" ================================= Just once, I'd like to borrow your eyes and write the way you do! This is excellent, vivid writing, it's yet another keeper~ Take care, Melissa~ "Poetry is not an opinion expressed... |

I'll go out on a limb and say that I love your Knotty shenanigans! It's too cool how you've realized the arboreal potential of the female persona. You've given treeclimbing a new meaning to me....See ya at the top. Rotts... |

I like how Linda says it, you can't see the forest through the trees, (much less get across the damn stream).... do I look like wonder woman or what? It's pretty dark out there sometimes...and you dear Sir do it justice! |
