Trust me, I hath said to thee for thou art thy keeper of mine soul Believeth me, I beg in most humble plea as I lie before your tender feet Sweet, this missive of his desire Complete, rounding of the fire Replete, yet he would lift me higher Sweet, this missive of his desire Loveth me if thy wilt, thy may If not, let me love thee in recluse for I wilt ‘main most true to thee That he loves, perhaps Tenderly he gained my heart Mayhap, he loved well Leave thy own heart within my hands to covet and cherish to my death Leave thy whispers 'pon my ears till steel of war takes my last breath Dear Lord, hear thee this, his lonely heart Thy sacred vows he did impart That only by death we would depart Dear Lord, hear thee this, his heart And, whence I’ve left thee for my rest ‘neath the earth of greatest oak tree Leave a rose of yellow ‘gainst my stone And keep in thine heart….my memory... Ah, his missive to my bosom pressed And here, where he now rests Will lay his carpet of roses blessed For by his love, I remain, possessed |

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Barry, you always write love so well in so many different snapshots and perspectives, though I dream so much of love you always teach me so much more about its mysteries through it as I grow on to understand it more, even after death! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is a very lovely duet, I LOVE IT, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Ah, Good Knight, thee hast found yet one muse more by which to entertain all... and did she, Sire, promise then, to amuse you once again, on yet another eve? |

Yes, M'lady, of sun and moon she promised would, very soon Her words a whisper to an ear Her thoughts pure and clear And whence the moment arrives to write and share a word I know she will, she thrives to fly beside where she's heard. |

Magnus darling heart this bears your mark of superior quality, you wander through my mind making yourself known to the traces of me that you encounter. And if somewhere in the silence of the moons soft sigh you hear my reply I find you answer with just the right words. Do I love this? You KNOW the answer to that darling man don’t you………… it is of course I love it utterly. Goodness that is a beautiful piece from you, and don’t reply goodness has nothing to do with it, because that is my line I love it when you write like this, it is without doubt what you are superb at, that you also manage to converse with your muse so apparently effortlessly is outstanding, I love it utterly utterly utterly love it The wench is coming ........... probably tomorrow Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Mushy Darling Heart....my muse, as I so aptly call "her"....is but one of you who desires to be as "SHE" is.....a mysterious woman of remarkable talent..... To her, my muse, I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to have her accompany me in this endeavor..... |

~*~ Loveth me if thy wilt, thy may If not, let me love thee in recluse for I wilt ‘main most true to thee That he loves, perhaps Tenderly he gained my heart Mayhap, he loved well ~*~ Your muse must be smiling at the tender lain within |
