Whene'er I think of how time flies I tend to tenderly kiss your eyes ... Perhaps in lieu of all sad goodbyes (I tend to tenderly kiss your eyes) A token for the brokenhearted lies (I tend to tenderly kiss your eyes) The ration of poor-fashioned alibis (I tend to tenderly kiss your eyes) Just that bitter bit of compromise (I tend to tenderly kiss your eyes) A provisional mission of butterflies (I tend to tenderly kiss your eyes) A fling that things can make arise (I tend to tenderly kiss your eyes) The sound of your seducing sighs (I tend to tenderly kiss your eyes) So much a touch can not disguise (I tend to tenderly kiss your eyes) Small ways you always improvise (I tend to tenderly kiss your eyes) Those thousand things we realize When you've a mind to fantasize It's ALL that and the other "why's" Why I tend to tenderly kiss ... Your eyes.

i enjoy those times when we simply write nonchalantly, as if in a whim, then only to realize a piece is ' all good.' like a kiss. superb, greg.... huggs

Well-said, Nette, and I agree ... those are the truly pleasurable ones. I'm very happy that you could tell that from this one, because it was almost an afterthought - I had no intention to write when I started it, then - boom! So much fun! Thank you so much, and blessings! :-) <3

Cute pic with your mostly Monorhyme and singsongy poem. Love the waviness. Someone could melt into this poem! Have a Happy Day!
