Fair maid, thy blush gives thee away. Would thy color fade as rubies taste the grapes of a tender vine? Would the sigh of loneliness be heard beyond the spires of desire? Would the tremor of thy sweetness bring forth the quake of a mountain on a spring day? Would you, would I....as dreams carry the heat of passion into a swelter beyond the steaming pool upon thee? Only I know....for thee art most precious, most beautiful and thy wish is my commitment, my covenant to thee. |

Ohhhh! I'm swooning here...  ..thinking when the grapes have turned to raisins, you'll still see only the blush in her cheeks. This is sabotage in the first degree! Lovely, lovely write!~ Klassy |

"Would the tremor of thy sweetness bring forth the quake of a mountain on a spring day?" ~ 'Tis with bated breath I ask if ye be the mountain, sire? If it be thee, then quake away this fine spring day and mine sweetness shall tremor uncontrolably... |

yanno Maggie?...I said these exact words to my "maid"..and the silly gal slapped me...some people!!!.....anyhow...it ended costing me for her "cleaning" service and then another $100 bucks for her "other" services.....all in all...it ended up being a good afternoon..and yes, I'd say she was a "fair" maid and her "fees" were nominal.. |
