Strangers In Paradise

Strangers In Paradise 
You Standing there

Blonde wavy hair
Streaks of red and gold

Eyes so  piercing 
Look right through me

And yet, then again
I see you watching me

I feel awkward this moment 
As you look right through me

I feel it every move I make
Even though you're not aware

I feel as though you're touching me
As my daydreams take me to paradise

Men might be like that too, but much more crude. You make things look good and pleasant. A very nice way of looking at things, rather than making them seem bad. Human nature is a good thing in your world--You are one of the good people--it's apparent and a wonderful thing.

It's great to dream about these things. You have a special ability in this regard, and there is nothing wrong with that at all. You are really remarkable and a very open and sharing gift giver.

Soulful eyes eyes that speak without a word,, thoughts exposed, though not unheard, passion flares behind these gates soul connectin gesticulates, hypnotic eyes aint absurd... Don re: Dbbie Duncan "Strangers In Paradise"

mind has the picture, daydream takes you there, in part of the astral, transported you share.

Oh! to be a stranger in paradise. It's like window shopping, and not being able to buy, but to just dream. <*> Soup Mail for you <*> Thank you for your kind words on my poem "On Golden Sands" much appreciated :) James
