Flicker of light Beckons me to the heat touch of rhythmic beating Engulfed by a flame That licks it’s way into my pores My life Until it consumes Even the smallest parts of me Allowing me to know You as myself To feel what you feel To be who you are Who you were Who you will be Teaching me The raw of you Bleeding for you in times Of need Smooth of you When you bleed for me Swallowing me with whispers Of pure unadulterated Love of a friend _____________________________ Because, some days we all need a reminder of why we are here. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

Whew! Now that's what I'd call a loving friendship! So passionately pure! I felt suffused with the loving warmth of your words. A friendship like yours is worth more than all the gold in the world. Love & Friendships, Linda |

There is a subtle change in your style that I'm enjoying so much. My favorite verse here is the first: "Flicker of light Beckons me to the heat touch of rhythmic beating Engulfed by a flame That licks it’s way into my pores My life Until it consumes Even the smallest parts of me" I don't have to tell you how overdone the candle and flame thing is, and yet you not only used it, you made it fresh. Like really looking at it for the first time. Brava, sweet friend! And Duncan? Shaddup and write something, will ya? fk |
