I felt as tiny as a flaw inside the sparkle of the world glowing there, beneath your daring weave your energy of conquer and divide You parted life waters like liquid butter separating small girls into wishful drifters and women into bouquets of burgundy wine Somehow, I escaped your fire breathing mentality and wandered straight down the middle of your white dress alley that valley where you kept the dolls all singed up melting them for fun Those whispers had a price I became solid, unafraid, so able to see the underbelly of your hard scaled exterior Perhaps you mirrored something I understood I recognized I could not turn away It was a slaying day Either I took your dragon for what it was worth or turn tail and run Seems like you stirred quite a lady out of me with those great big wings and hurly-burly ways What more could a woman want than her own personal blaze somebody has to turn on the heat It doesn’t matter if the streets melt up in molten I’d still be as barefooted as the day I walked across your mind, stumbled on your heart, and found that spot called soft |

(smiles) Yes!!! Whew, yep, love can always tame the heart of even the most supposedly wild dragon of all, for I believe any mammoth can always be tamed by the essence of true love! (kiss on cheek) This is beautifully sensual and sensitive, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Regina, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

What more could a woman want than her own personal blaze somebody has to turn on the heat It doesn’t matter if the streets melt up in molten I’d still be as barefooted as the day I walked across your mind, stumbled on your heart, and found that spot called soft ----------------------------------------- Dang Regina...YOU are SO good!! This would melt the pavement. Excellent write! ~Hugs~ |

It doesn’t matter if the streets melt up in molten I’d still be as barefooted as the day I walked across your mind, stumbled on your heart, and found that spot called soft Reg, when I read the lovely of your words it makes me think once again how very proud that I am of my somy~ Enjoy life, this is NOT a dress rehearsal. |

"separating small girls into wishful drifters" Tonight? I check off BOTH. There are poets that have the gift of fishing---they throw out a line, and? just fish for the sure joy of "playing" the line-- tis a beauty to watch and a great joy to "READ" reg? in poetry, you are "fly-fisher"! (serenity exits...growing gills... ) |

Regina, when I see yours, I try to save them for the last ones I read for the night...because I seem to get tripped up and can't go on with a clear head to any others...seemingly stuck on the mystical way you write. Total-ly awesome-ly simp-ly wonderful! |

Thank you smiles. mycafe: Thank you for that! I am really glad you enjoyed. Hugs! Serenity: LOL! Well then all innocent by-standers are fair game! hehe. That's about my gist of fly fishing..but I do understand the meaning of "bait" and "tackle"..though it gets a little rough! YOU are too much. Big thank you hugs! passing shadows: You are soo good to me and I humbly thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am honored that you would read anytime. Big hugs! Sincerely, Reg |
