One must grind the coffee bean until you get a smoother blend the coarser variety doesn't offer the same end. One is given the gift of language the coarser tongue captures attention yet can turns away the will the smoother the tongue the better the sales pitch that might just be an offer of love on the wing as the flight of a dove. There’s always hope for a crude settler with a coarse tongue to develop his taste for finer blends, correct his incivility by making amends always an equal force to undo the finery sends man back into his awkward days... then there was no need to grind beans or live up to another's hope of finesse. |

Thanks for commenting. And one is pured  It's my attempt at saying that finesse doesn't make a better person...poems like this one will eventually be put together on people's perception of one another, true or false  |

Coarse writing, smooth writing how on ever do people feel that the love poems they write originate - by passionate post cards You remind me of a few words from a Terry Pratchet in which a witch said "it only took two months before he was getting out of the bath to use the privy" and that is what a woman can achieve. I like the words, the thoughts and the writing Dave |

I have considered the publishing Passing but like many others including youself perhaps am limited by the funds I have...so some have suggested I marry a rich widow...now isn't that a typical scenario in life? |
