Just the slightest tease of sky I feel in morning cloak of seam a humbled lash against the true of pewter day locked out for dream Can't I stay here one more kiss a float in lavender air to breathe the mist all twisted in tidal whirl poured on pillow I'm soaked unfurled The sky is stitched with magic now where every butterfly's a dream and every dream bound outward seeking desperately a world And yet one kiss is all that matters one kiss to hold, an amulet, a charm against the parting, and a share of us unsold Until tomorrow or a turn of time and dream when dreams return to rest, to stay, to find the sun and to be captured, free.

A wonderful duet you two. Especially liked the flow of piece, just as the pause after the last kiss... TD |

Martie/Ed, Applause, applause! Watch out you two, if I can ever figure out how to break with my structured forms and delve into writing with pure emotion, I will still be way behind you, but gaining fast. Doc |

The sky is stitched with magic now where every butterfly's a dream and every dream bound outward seeking desperately a world And yet one kiss is all that matters one kiss to hold, an amulet, a charm against the parting, and a share of us unsold Oh, yes. *S* The sky isn't the only thing stitched with magic... this seamless weaving of your talents simply sparkles. *S* Please keep partnering (at least poetically *G*)... your dance is liquid gold. *S* |

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Martie and Ed, this is a beautiful duet, sweet friend, I know this feeling of how every kiss should be cherished like a keepsake as I long for my first kiss and want to feel the same way! (sigh) This is wonderful, sweet friends, we all love you both so much! You have such beautiful hearts, sweet Ed and Martie, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton And that's the most wonderful thing about creating. It will always be a mystery. |

Can't I stay here one more kiss a float in lavender air to breathe the mist all twisted in tidal whirl poured on pillow I'm soaked unfurled The sky is stitched with magic now where every butterfly's a dream and every dream bound outward seeking desperately a world Oh yes, dear friends, a kiss certainly can be magical. I love this. You two should do this more often. Hugs to you both, Ethel |
