Lips of Swell and Fire--Collaboration Poem With Mystic Rose

Her power, unrestrained, sweet as honeysuckle rose Doth grant me, but a glimpse, of what I rave to find I fall in misty meadow where the Bluebells brightly grow Hot kisses stirring in the wind, cool my fevered mind While I in yonder wait, for my love to take me home Doth grant whom access Lord, the soul for him it pines At the foothills of my love, each heaven star a-glow Saccharin kisses in the blow, no longer in confines He picks me up and raises me to cordial place, desire I know him, he knoweth me, by lips of swell and fire! Written in collaboration with Mystic Rose I wish to express my appreciation to Rose For her ideas, talent--and inspiration Mel *** :)

Hey, the other Merrill. You should have me over to dinner. We Merrills must stick together. It is a proud name and a proud heritage. I'm glad you liked the poem, but comments are like gold around here--though my post from last night did OK. Tonight I explain the conumdrum who is me. I might be sorry I did :) Have a great Easter. Love and peace. mel :)

Don't worry about the lack of comments Mel. I've found the same over the past few days - I have made you a favourite so will drop by to see your works. Meanwhile, the more you comment (in theory) the more you should get comments back - been average 10% for me lately so that theory blown out the water lol. Had better day today posted collaboration poem and some awesome feedback. Hugs Jan xx

Hi Jan, good to see you again, and to read your always helpful comments. I'm curious about my comments--why I receive comparatively few. I might soup mail you this evening with that question. Meanwhile, know I value and appreciate your visits and feedback. Love to you, Jan mel :)
