Since I Found You

Oh, yes that was so long ago! But your sparkling eyes, I get to see all day through. Even when you are not here, My thoughts are of you, you, you! Deep secrets we share. Like that night you carried me up the stairs. It seems I am forever dancing and encircled by you. Those lips luscious as Mavrodaphne, so yummy. Thoughts of you, put butterflies in my tummy! With my love~ Panagiota September 3, 2020 6:30am PST Notes: Mavrodaphne is made from sweet grapes grown in Greece.It is sometimes called..."Black Laurel."

That last couplet is so fragrant, Panagiota... I don't going to have to 'refresh' my computer, so that my wife doesn't suspect any hanky-panky going on. lol. Congrats to you on POTD! Fragrance and Friendship, Gershon

So grateful to hear from you, Gershon. This was a wonderful shock this morning. These POTD's do not puff my ego up. They make me more humble. I do realize people grumble over POTD's. That's too bad. Fragrance and Friendshio to you as well~ Pangiexxx You do belong as number 1 on all lists,

Hdllo Brandy, Do you know..,that when I get a POTD, It amazes me that you are always there, like a precious stone and poet friend! It is so nice that you do this. So thank you for always being there. I can't give myself the same credit. I don't look at POTDS all the time. YOU, my friend, belong on a BEST list. How very unselfish you are! Golly! Glad you like that taste. This poem made me smile,too. Brandy, as sweet as Mavrrodaphne+ )) Panagiotaxxx

Heartfelt Greetings Paula! Always have great respect for any poet who takes their time to salute another. It also tells me who my friends are here and who are not. Clear distinction..-)) I really am heartened by the POTD. But more importantly, by those who sign. "Of myself, I am nothing," Those butterflies are wonderful, yes? YES! Hugs and good wishes, Panagiota xxu
