In the pearl of the sky I went looking for the light barefoot around the rows of windows Some hand had spilled ice-cubes there They were melting into the lemon hidden in the corner of outside Wake with me some midnight and we will search for morning in delicious slumbering warmth covered with this light |

"Some hand had spilled ice-cubes there They were melting into the lemon hidden in the corner of outside" The words, the images and the invitation redefined warmth, especially on an endless winter's day on the other coast. Very cool write Martie... |

Wake with me some midnight and we will search for morning in delicious slumbering warmth covered with this light ========================= I'll bet there is flannel involved. There is a pleasure in the pathless woods. |

You've inspired me, Martie. I'm going to take that walk right now. Different night, different street, different town.....same walk. You can be in the same place and time on a walk, but it isn't always necessary. I'll let you know if that ice has melted yet. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
