Thorny Height I climbed desires horny height Blight my mind to feel delight Aurora borealis spell Took me straight down into hell And I lived with it all these years With the raging and the fears And I gave to her my other cheek And played the humble and the meek There was a whisper came to me From out the blue and o’er the sea That I should bow beneath the whip And wear the shroud of sackcloth slip But now I weary of the task And would remove the humble mask To fly among the butterflies And drink the nectar of a sigh Do I do wrong this patience game Or should I still remain the same. |

Hmmm...it is a hard question to answer Sy. Then again..maybe not. What does "he" really feel deep in his heart? Thoughts to ponder this lovely morning. Butter tarts with your tea? ![]() "Hope" is the thing with feathers |

Well Sy-babers...me thinks the answer to that question is whose dragon has the bigger bite? LOL Can Randy handle the wrath of a womans thorns? lol Me thinks you already know the answer to your couplets question...you've always known...thats why you can be humble and patient.... You learned a long time ago that just past the thorns of scorn lies the radiant rose, and its perfumed petals of sweet suppose makes it all worth the weeds of woe. See how your wisdom garden grows? (no wonder the butterflies sigh in your skies) ![]() ![]() *ww* ![]() ![]() ![]() When was the last time you felt high |
