Mapping your love (with muse) My eyes follow, in gentle sway, a subtle rise and fall around the curving byways of you. I marvel at every peak, gasp with each valley's depth, barely catching my breath on the plateaus of you. Exquisite topography alters with the reading of you. My fingers yearn to map my eyes’ journeys so that, even in the dark, exploration by Braille might find all the sighs of you. Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

oooh, I like this rendition, too it is a smoother read, I think, the feel is a tiny bit different, yet I can't explain it maybe it's just because I read others between Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

Its like the difference between black coffee and coffee with a little bit of sugar in it... Just a bit sweeter and smoother... but both are excellent. ~ hugs from my quill to yours Lyra |

Kit ~ Thank you for not saying that my muse soothed the beast Virginia ~ Humph! Smoother, huh? Well, you're right Lyra ~ Sweeter? OK, OK, I give up. My muse was (and still is, to my knowledge) female. Whaddayawant, I'm only a guy ... Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

You might be able to read that brail map, but I wants to know if you can refold it? A-musing U R. P. |

Bob darling heart this is exceptional, the draft was good the second is spectacular. This is exceptional writing as always your writing is so very very special and I love it utterly. Is that what you mean by topography well you are certainly top darling boy and you can…….. you can fill in the blanks love, otherwise they’ll move me to adult. Let your fingers to the walking *smile You know when I do eventually get in here I run as fast as my little fingers can carry me to your poem, where in contentment I sit myself down at the feet of the master and gaze in wonder at you. drinking in the sparkling air that is finer, and more rarefied around you than almost anywhere else. What I’m trying to say and taking far too long about it is I love your writing. This is another of your utter delights and I love it utterly utterly utterly. as always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire Thy coolness and they balm Let sense be dumb let flesh retire Speak through the earthquake wind and fire [This message has been edited by Marsha (08-07-2002 06:34 PM).] |
