Slow Down Slow down, e-a-s-e your hand along my arm, linger awhile, lips on lips - say the words, the words . . . whispered, so I barely hear you breathe. Feel the heat, cheek to cheek, the pounding of hearts trying to sync . . . e-a-s-y now, we've the night, all night long, to slide our souls . . . as one. Slow down . . . slow . . . down . . . e-a-s-e your hand, and linger . . . yes, linger . . . there. w. james beard, jr.

Lovely.. smiling here ![]() Maree. Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |
