You Drew a line and dared me to cross over I Drew a line and dared you to fall in love with me We Met in the middle Climbing into cupboards eating false alarms Tears ran down the cheeks of summer’s womanhood Hitting the breaks hard, like a change of life cramp We, heard the wings of hummingbirds Ate tubs of key lime pie… On the canvas of pretty boned lopes and prances Showing our best true selves…playfully naked We were hot-shots in California Life Styles Looking for new graffiti of our own With brilliant ruby hues according to family legends Stoking the belly of full moons Listening to the trees and their fraternity With breezes which cursed me…you…us I’m so sorry there is no pain, like the guilt of hurting someone, dissappointing them... are you sorry you crossed over? |

You Drew a line and dared me to cross over I Drew a line and dared you to fall in love with me We Met in the middle Love these lines. The whole write was a treat. You've quite the way with words. Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

Most certainly a fine write. I could feel and see it all within the unfolding of the moments as they passed my eyes. Well done Lee... |
