Good God! I think you have outdone yourself with this one, Amanda!
Your choice of words is just fantastic! I don’t think anyone could’ve described it any better!
From the innermost feelings, rises a poem, tender and delicate… but warm to the heart..
The image was perfection!!!! And so is the song… phhhewwww
This was heavenly!! It had a real romantic and intimate feel to it… goosebumps!!!
HAVE A GREAT SATURDAY, my friend… MMWWWAAAHHH!!!

Loved it! Creativity of any kind really is like giving birth. There can definitely be agony along the way, but the end result is often beautiful.

Would you say the umbilical cord is cut at the completion of each poem, that at that the release they take on a life of their own? The poem has me curious as to how you view these babies of yours. Thanks for sharing friend…as always your words set my brain to thinking! 😉
August 9, 2010 at 7:40 am
You are right, the umbilical cord is cut at the completion…..LOL…you made me think even more about this now!!! Sending you love xx

In your hands, even poeming about poeming seems almost a sensual, a physical, thing. You have a gift. No doubt.
