Like a honey jar, she glistens gold as morning. She tastes of warming secrets. She sticks to me in stamps. She writes to me in letters. Memory of her hands. Did she press that flower down? 37 'cross her nail. Did she write me words of warning or bold intents of her love? Hold the fold. I close my eyes. Paper kiss. Her transferred voice. Put the letter in the drawer in its shade and shadow. Looking out the window. Waiting at the window. Waiting at the window. Waiting at the window. These smiling eyes are just a mirror for the sun. |

I keep meaning to get over there to read what I missed the other night...thanks for putting this bit o honey right under my oblivious nose! very effective ending, with the repetition, and the focused imagery that is still sensuous but sharp is your trademark. |

![]() ![]() ![]() (smiles) Oh my gosh, I just love this, sweet friend, I just had to read this again for I loved reading this in the Sanctuary! (sigh) I love the analogy of honey as in all the beauty seems to stick and not dissolve, sweet friend, this is wonderful, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Michael, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
