Really? I hope so! It was the last entry...I saw one spot open and I decided to write something real quick. Hope it does ok. How are you, Rick? I'm having my coffee and getting my fill of poetry before my day starts. I have classes from 8:00 to 12:00 back to back....then I have to rush home to cook for the family. It's going to be a busy day, but for now....POETRY. Hugs

Yes, Tim. There are limits though. If the relationship is abusive...then....it's got to go. Thanks for the visit.

Thank you, Emile. Though it was not intentionally sensual, I guess I cannot keep that element out of my writing! :) Thank you for the visit.
