Sun-drenched blondes in black skin tight dresses tan and blue-eyed babies in arms shoulders bare and bellies ring as gypsy skirts sway to street guitar black blues sound of a smile where an ancient couple barely able to walk hold each other and dance with the grace of youth love is in the way his hand presses her back ice-cream with fresh fish seaweed and lots of suntan lotion- the sun must set in this ocean even when I’m gone but how ______ 99 |

I like it all with the slimmest possible exception taken with ice cream with fish ... yuk Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

(smiles) Oh Martie, this is soooooo beautiful, sweet friend, I love this vision of sumer you created, this reminded me of my visit a few weeks ago to California and visiting Newport after getting back from Catalina Island and watching people eat fish and chips and ride the carousel! (kiss on cheek) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you!

I agree with Sy, Martie... If I tried to get those same words to mix, it would be a disaster...but when you do it, its poetry. ~ lovely flowery hugs Lyra |

Dang, ice cream and fresh fish? That's hard to swallow, but coming from you it's easy to do. Nice work as always Martie~ |

Oops...I seem to have made a blunder. I don't recommend eating ice cream with fresh fish...seperate the times...and make ice cream dessert. |
