Ebony Ebony stunts my mood today A blow of blunt and crude dismay It slides me down the pit of ID And will not let me lift the lid. I feel the shadows dance around They touch my skin in trance of sound. Electrify the sweat of sere And there the angst appears in fear. I listen for each sound a key To turn a latch and let me free But ebony is its own inane And plays upon my minds insane. There is no way to blunt the dark No firefly will light a spark And I am left a pit of dwell That smells to me a fringe of hell. And I would be its knave and slave If not a morning’s kiss did save. birdpenguins2.gif [URL=http://birdpenguins2.gif] http://birdpenguins2.gif [This message has been edited by Seymour Tabin (08-27-2002 07:10 PM).] |

(smiles) Oh Seymour, I know this feeling so very well, sweet friend, silhouettes of my love still invade my dreams and yearn for her so much yet the affection they display feels so real! (big hugggsssss) This is beautiful, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you!

Upon the ice where fire's heat would puddle pools of safe retreat I dance the dance of id's display somehow, somewhere, it's safer that way |

Sy Ebony has its own beauty...if you close your eyes real tight..a kaleidoscope of pure delight. Saved by a morning kiss...wonderful! |

We're sending you and Randy a special kind of spark This will light your ebon' night so bright ... Ebony will take flight to Ivory's winter white A firefly might kiss and tell ... but not the lips of bliss of Tinkerbell *winkiewinkie* |

Seymour darling heart sorry I’m late but my bodies time clock is way out of balance at the moment, so I’m not in sync with anyone’s time zone. As always your writing is so sublime, written with your usual aplomb and style, no wonder I love your writing, it really is superb. I love it utterly Release the thoughts that pull you down You are the poet who wears PiP’s crown Your words flowing in poetic stream Weave words of magic into the dream Am I awake or perhaps again asleep? Run to capture this for me to keep The wisdom dished up each day by you Answers the question of what to do Give each day more than you take Mould the dreams for poets sake Touch the thought and stir the soul Believe in truth will keep you whole Your words inspire the writers here Release the thoughts of failures fear Truly one of your best darling man, and I’m hoisting this to the top again, have a good day tomorrow/ today and I applaud you darling man I really do, this is exceptional Love and warm stuff 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 (08-28-2002 12:02 AM).] |

JM, A firefly might kiss and tell ... but not the lips of bliss of Tinkerbell You know ebony read those lines and she just got up and walked away. Thank you my sweet. I hope all is going well with you and your family. Just give them some chicken soup. Have things to do a little short on time. I'll try and write tonight. WWRS Marsha, Your replies are always so sweet I've gained ten pounds. But I do love candy. I hope you are well you are a pillar to my ego. Sy |
