huddle with me,
between that world
just for a little while
before i go…
we are
broad with forthcoming powers
eternal
battle to create that first
unaccompanied translation
you know the one…
that tastes imagination,
creation & love
undressing thoughts
i shall smile
very thoughtful indeed…
this water rat woman
deserves
to be drowned
in grey whiskers of
devoted friendship
i expect, tiny wings of silver spray
softly kissing my face,
my forehead,
my neck…
pink bloomed
floral places
watching the symphony between us
turn to
puckering handfuls of sweet herbs
proud!
with noble melodious incense
white gardenias…

then we…

part with unselfish dreams

taking

visions

with us

on our separate ways
so that we might consider
the flattery amongst
charming things
rubbing my eyes
once in a while
just to listen,
to a city of angel’s
song

first thing at dawn
when orange moon
slips away

when i am alone…
…and unfriendly

You sing a sad, sweet and true love song.

'undressing thoughts
i shall smile'


A mighty muse is playing in your inkwell,
splashing the loveliest of thoughts~

You know what, Lee?
You are one of the most amazing writers I have ever read.  

I do not get in here as often as I wish and forgive me for not always responding, it surely does not mean I am not reading.

But when I read your words, your thoughts,
My God . . . it is like merchurochrome (sp?)

(remember that stuff?)

stings for a moment, leaves you feeling better and always always leaves a stain on your skin . . .

as you do with your words . . .

YES!  YES!  Lee, you have a magical way of transporting me through your imagery; it is as if I am on emotional journey, then safely placed at my doorstep at its end.   Lovely.

Like birds in flight signifies,  that all is,  and will be, right in the heavens.  You leave me pondering so much, LeeJ.  Thank you....  I'll rest easier after finding you tucked in here tonight.

I swam through the currents of your words, weaving about, and occasionally rising to the surface for air, peaking at that dawn and orange moon, until it slowly slipped away.
I was totally immersed in this wonderful write Lee J.
