The courting reporter read it back to me and it is there; She called me Baby! It came out quick, with ease between the wine and bries my hungry ears it pleased, She called me Baby! My doe heart froze in light, my grey hair stood upright, my hope roared fahrenheit, She called me Baby! The little bird whose trill my stomach heard and thrilled an emptiness was killed, when She said Baby! And it not once but thrice, my mind wept Edelweiss, sweet bird of paradise had called me Baby! When we rose from her bed in throes of passion's fed (though Love was never said) She called me Baby! What should I make of this sweet mouth I long to kiss? (and somewhat south of this) or was it maybe? Now there's an echo here (and too a timid fear) again please whisper Dear that I'm your Baby "Happy people have no history" - French Proverb |

It sounds as if you have a great reason to be so elated but I do have ONE ? If you were jumping from the throes of bed ... where the heck was the courting reporter to have recorded all of this?????? NEVER MIND!!! I think that best be left alone. :! Wonderful write. The flow was flawless and the presentation had a very inticing quality about it. I very much enjoyed and NO ..... I ain't gonna touch that "south" line. |

This was such a fun read! It's always nice when someone you care about, or want to care about, calls you a cuddly name...too often in life, we are called the other names!! Enjoyed this too!! Open the door and let your adventure begin!!! |
