Love should never be lukewarm. It requires the sun for its heat...not a microwave. Damn fine job!

YOU ARE RIGHT!!!!! Hmmmmmmm....Oh dear...I was thinking of an old fashioned stove....Yes, I have read a series by Janette Oak about the Canadian and American frontier women having to push the pots onto the back burner to keep the food warm....I was alluding to that. ;) Sun would work.....Thanks for stopping by, Drake. :)

Hmmmmmmm....As the poem goes....the writer has been pushed to the back burner....Someone else should do the turning on....don't you think? ;) I am constantly in that state, anyway...so, perhaps a little cooling off will be good. ;) You already have me smiling. Thank you, Richard.
