Lovely lavender lilacs Lazily lifting life Living lavishly Laughing luminously at leprechauns Precocious pansies And prickly pears Play politely to prayers Posing pleasantly Beautiful butterflies Bathe in brightness Briskly breathe at blossoms Behaving bottled brilliance Teasing tulips trapezing Trusting tender tiptoes Tasting the tender tantrums Of the tipitty-tapping toads Dallying daffodils Dropping ditties at daybreak During drip-dropping dew Dousing the dawdling duckling Sweet snapdragons Snipping snarls at snails In sassy sureness of spring Surviving simple sanity Rare roses Revealing readiness Reciting recurrent recollections Reclaiming rediscovery Whispering willow Wavering in the westward wind Wafting wishes While weathering woodpeckers Melancholy mishaps Merrily modify marigolds Masquerading the map of May Mopping mirrors of madness "Somewhere, somehow, it should be possible to touch someone and never let go again. To hold someone, not for a moment but forever." A. Brink [This message has been edited by Kit McCallum (06-20-2005 01:01 PM).] |

This was fun to read. Especially enjoyed this one: "Beautiful butterflies Bathe in brightness Briskly breathe at blossoms Behaving bottled brilliance" Their brilliance I would just love to bottle! It sounds like you had a lot of fun with the alliteration! Enjoyed. miscee |

I have framed little poems from Passions in my home, and this one of yours really tickled my tongue, and also my fancy! I have also pasted poems to the backs of all my artwork in the house, just words I found here and there at Passions that other people wrote that describe well how I feel about or see a particular painting. Here is where I am going to puts yours later today. It sure suits it don't you think? Front Back So welcome to my home Bridgette, you I will pass by every day in the hall from now on. |

Karilea you're sooo cute....I'm sure I know who that is but my head is drawing a blank. I'm happy that you enjoyed this!!!Thank You!!!! Miscee I had a lot of fun with this. I just might try it again. Thank You!!!! Dixie...it's nice to see you too. You little angel of the archives. Thanks!!!! Ice...the sounds of it are fun and yes I loved the play of this one. Thank You!!!! Marge....It's great to be home. My muse finally decided it wanted to come out and play. I wrote 3 poems in a 24 hour period. And loved every minute of it. But, I think what I love more is seeing the friendly words of others gracing my screen for me to read. I need to come by and play more often. I'm happy to see you also. And I'm glad you enjoyed. You are such a sweetheart!!!! Thank You!!!! Sharon....your painting is beautiful. I am very very honored to be up in your home. Thank YOU so very much. Sweet lady. Martyjo, That is so cool that you have gardens around your house. It brightens up everything around you...gardens do. It was playful fun. Thank You!!!!
