My Love An Anacreontic Couplet Work

Like a pale red running rose
Are the cheeks of my love, his nose
After he has walked a mile
Thinking of me all the while
At the opened door a kiss
His heart melts with the sheer bliss
Then the children gather round
Screams, laughter, those joyous sounds
Hugs and kisses, lets go play
Hopes of sex, delayed that day

Beata Agustin Date: 1/2/2024 2:49:00 AM Thanks for sharing this. God bless you. Meanwhile, I greet you with a Joyous New Year with this prayer from the Bible in Numbers 6:24-26, "The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace."

I appreciate the visit. Sara K

Love the image of a happy family that you have painted dear Sara.

Duke Beaufort Date: 12/29/2023 6:06:00 AM Sara, that is so true. The fondness and intimacy we might wish to have sometimes takes a back seat to other types of play. At least it's play that interrupts in this scenario. Not so bad really. Just very human. Login to Reply Sara Kendrick Date: 12/29/2023 1:21:00 PM I remember those days when children had to have their attention, Duke, even though sometimes it seems like eons ago. Thanks for the visit.
