Breathing Poetic Thought When your words caress my eyes They fill my soul with tender sighs Then a line will draw me in To bathe my mind in heated sin The touch of you in this line Flows all through me in song divine Then a smile across the page Will soothe the soul of sorrow’s rage When I breathe in poets’ scent I ponder what the line has meant You dip your pen in heart’s ink Transcribe words of poets’ think Translucent thoughts are touching me Stroke my soul with empathy Each word fitted into its place Etches thoughts in wordy trace When the lines flow down in style I gather words for my file And label each thought, word and deed Holding them till I have need And then I pluck the flower so Find within the poet’s flow The taste of you wraps me within Whispers tease against my skin With your words draping over me I find my soul can fly free Marsha Breathe through the heat of our desire |

When I read the title, I thought you'd described yourself aptly. *S* This is beautiful, Marsha. *S* You've captured the lure, the addiction... so very well. Excellent work! *S* |

Marsha - this is truly lovely and a pleasure to read. Chris  Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

MarshaLove~ 'When I breathe in poets’ scent I ponder what the line has meant You dip your pen in heart’s ink Transcribe words of poets’ think' Oh yes ... oh yes~ This one is vanilla wafting~ *PiPITIS Hugs* (Closer and closer)  ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Mum you know I love it, now stop crowing and get back to packing, you haven't got time to be writing pieces like this. If you want to write really well try some free verse mummy dearest, you know it makes sense.   love and warm stuff as always Krissy And while thy willing soul transpiers at every pore with instant fires Andrew Marvell 1621-1678 [This message has been edited by Krissy (09-02-2002 06:40 PM).] |

Ya have all of them in your little web, just waiting for me to join in and walk lightly across the strings of silken weave, KNOWING that somewhere within the purest weave of silk, still lies my little spider friend....my Mushy who needs me to egg her toward that edge...the edge of write...where she attacks me...as only one's wench can.... Come out, come out, where ever you are?/?!!!! Seriously darling girl. This is one of your utter best, to coin your own words.. Much enjoyed....thanx... Barry |

when you pen your gift of think dipped in deepest poet's ink then you show the world anew what a gifted pen can do back by wisdom and by wit Marsha love, you sure have it How soft you curl your words around to draw us in and break new ground how well you know us all my dear and use those words to draw us near how well you paint your ink of think and wrap us well in poet's link Stunning and soft poem. IWIHWT Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Thank you one and all my darling friends I haven’t been in for a day or three I’m sorry my friends I’ve been so busy As Margie girl says I’ve been out shopping I know I’ve enough but there’s no stopping A dress with sequins was calling my name I tried to resist but gave in all the same So I’ve packed it into my bulging suitcase And it’s coming with me to that place I’ll get back in here I promise you all But if you need me in between just call (Offer me glitter and I’ll be back quicker)   Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |

The best thing about poetry is that it teases and taunts your senses, leaving you breathless one way or another...never quite fully grasping every meaning though enough to stir something inside of every reader...beautifully, and utterly wonderfully done Mushy one! |
