Have I Ever Told You That

The ecstasy of gold is self contained inside my heart in a spot where memory holds you in for all my days My silent eyes have touched you in a million ways and my silent tongue has tasted you in every part My hands have cooked for you and poured you wine and lips of wet have traced your chin time after time I am a gypsy soul that found her first reunion ring and my caravan of love is you, you make me sing I've sat with you in the parlor room right after bath and shared with you the linen breath of my youth together we bloomed flowers and trailed our path back to the future where we lived out, our truth The ecstasy of gold is self contained inside my heart I know that but have I ever told YOU, that !

Thank you for running the contest, I enjoyed this type of challenge very much. Better then contests with a hundred rules that put us in straight jacket. You fueled my imagination and that is always a good thing, when to entering a contest, God bless.
