Mornings come quickly now before the crust of toast is gone or the tea cooled the sky drinks me with perfect blue Nights I understand the missing of summer for in the dark cool crunch of autumn I cannot lie naked under windows my legs loose and uncovered first the sheet creeps up and I cuddle it wanting more I blanket my breasts I feel you blow the steam within your cup and look up with questions in your eyes about oh about why why do we need the change to happen and the blast of air I know what you are asking you think time isn’t fair because it takes things and makes something else sometimes it makes grief I fear grief too and not just because of you But I love a storm and change of current on my skin Sound the thunder I am drowning in sun let me rain all over you until your eyes listen and finally you say enough Maybe then you will know why is just because |

How well I have known the battling of change, and the refreshment of the new transformation. This is perfect Marti. TD |

Mornings come quickly now before the crust of toast is gone or the tea cooled the sky drinks me with perfect blue Love this. It made me smile and sigh at the same time. Loved the entire piece - SusanHappiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

"I feel you blow the steam within your cup and look up with questions in your eyes about oh about why why do we need the change to happen and the blast of air" Some reasons for change we understand, but some we just don't and never will. I find your change of season cloaks a change much deeper. Ken Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

a perfect ending to a perfect write I do love a good storm too, that's why I stayed during Ivan, but now...I can do without the feeling and will leave north when the next one comes I love these cool nights and early mornings |

But I love a storm and change of current on my skin Sound the thunder I am drowning in sun let me rain all over you until your eyes listen and finally you say enough ------------------------ No one loves a storm as much as I do but I just have this feeling that your storm would be extra vibrant in it's glow of clash. Beautiful images and superb writing as always. No wonder you hold the capture in amaze so well. |

Martie, this is absolutely incredible... I wish I had written this. you're amazing beautiful friend Maree Well I see you doing, What I try to do for me, With the words from a poet, And a voice from a choir, And a melody, nothing else matters. ~Stevie Nicks |

ohhh girl, this was absolutely beautiful...each word of every line was incredible. I do so enjoy your work, and the ending was brilliant, in more ways then one... Upon the coming of a storm, I so enjoy watching it from beginning to end...the light show sometimes is beyond words....when the wind blows hard, the rain looks like phantom white sheets floating...nature is awesome and so are your poems. |
