Flirt
Beware—-
The feelings walking
Or running in your chest
In a rhythm morphing
Into a hypnotic dance
Intoxicating—-
You are not numb
No
You are soft and caring
The gummy bear
The marshmallow pillow
Beware—-
The speed of intent
One moment cold calculating
The next all guns gone a-blazing
Ecstasy
Craving
To be touched, teased
To be pinched, pushed around
In a seductive way
In a kind, gentle way
Beware—-
What you say
Singing in a charming voice
Making magic with words
That bounce off heartbroken walls
Know this well:
Even concrete cracks
when the condition is all wrong
The feelings walking
Or running in your chest
In a rhythm morphing
Into a hypnotic dance
Intoxicating—-
You are not numb
No
You are soft and caring
The gummy bear
The marshmallow pillow
Beware—-
The speed of intent
One moment cold calculating
The next all guns gone a-blazing
Ecstasy
Craving
To be touched, teased
To be pinched, pushed around
In a seductive way
In a kind, gentle way
Beware—-
What you say
Singing in a charming voice
Making magic with words
That bounce off heartbroken walls
Know this well:
Even concrete cracks
when the condition is all wrong

The burden of life had me pinned down with such immense a burden that it rendered me unable to share my thoughts, feelings and simple observations with those kind ones who no doubt spend their invaluable time reading what I write.
I must seize this here moment, since I know not what tomorrow holds, to sincerely let you all know that I appreciate all who read what I write: especially the generous ones who go an extra mile to gift me critiques and encouragements in turns.
Finally, I have also been unable to step into the magnificent worlds/minds of my favorite writers on here, those who with peculiar grace, permit me a glimpse into the mangifent inner workings of their worlds/minds/hearts/struggles, through sweet eloquent words.
I bet I missed you all more than you did me.
And you Howling! coming a-knocking at my door brightened my soul. You must know this. I can’t thank you enough for stopping by.
Where am I? Off wandering through life again but as you you can see I’ve circled back. xo
