All is bright, and I betwixt God and you, the kookaburra is in the willow, and honeyeaters in the honeydew flitter as I lay your breast and pillow. You are my morning and evening star, sweet inveigler to the unpractised heart - girl, all I need is to be where you are and never know what woe it is to part. So we are in our beguiling sublimed by a divine ordinance or blessing, but visceral love, like a woman’s mind, keep all mortal men eternal guessing! Kid, you mean and are everything to me, and I do love the stars in Cotton Tree. Written: September 1997
