Novice actress bares all to absorb the bright light in entirety. She does not play Arabian Nights. So wise guys the actress was not silly either. Andrea knows better. xxxxxx LOVE RAJAT

I saw the word stripping, so I walked in because well you know how I add photographs to my poems...so I was thinking...Never mind. I love this Haiku. Sounds like you placed in that contest.

Ok you got me with that last line-- I was not expecting that, even if your title could have been a clue-- nice twist in there, Andrea! Read your comment, thanks for the heads up, sweetie and I still owe you mail, but have to sleep now....I really did enjoy that write of yours though-- I still find it so cool how you are still able to write, whatever the contest or theme may be! hugs to you sweetie!

Is it a 'Coincidence' or by 'Design'? You next to me, up and down! Baring in neon? I am a natural guy!! Very clever write, Andrea.

probable bares all. You stuck to the challenge here. I think it's got probabilities of a winner! Hope you are good. And I do not mean that all poets are egotistical. Mostly just myself, at times. and that's who I was describing in that poem. You, definitely are not that way.
