I once pretended to fake a smile, which you mistook as sincere. shrugging a sigh of indifference, you left. don’t know if that’s what I was going for, but the sway of your exasperation walking away was enough to excite even the most tolerant of men. and you know I’ve never been that tolerant. |

Christopher - May I keep this one? Thanks! It reminds me of something which took place years ago. My anger and frustration affected a certain someone exactly this way. I could go on ... but ... I think not.  so good to read your words again. Chris "At one glance |

I like the way you wrote this one. Just a couple of verses but you showed the whole scene.Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

I once pretended to fake a smile, which you mistook as sincere. shrugging a sigh of indifference, you left. Oh goodness sakes, gotta love that. Patience and tolerance have never been my forte, but I'll keep plugging away, and just maybe get it right someday. Love your take Christopher~ |

LOL, I would never have thought (in)tolerance could in any way be connected with a sway.  |

This is rather a different style from you and one that I like very much. Despite the apparent light-heartedness, there is just the twingiest of regret in the meeting of the apparent paradox. More like these please? (he loves it when I beg, folks) |
