Tickle Me Pink

Tickle me pink, I'm ready to laugh. Dying for some fun, get out of this gaff. Wish I could dance 'till the dawn of day. Wish I could drink my cares away. Wish I could fly far,far away. When I get the cash, I will someday. Wish my children did not have to leave. Wish I could finish knitting this sleeve. Wish it was summer instead of this cold. Then I could swim, then I could stroll. Here I am wishing my life away. Just need someone to come out to play. Then stay.

Jean, I meant to say I love the line 'dance till the dawn of day', stunning. Thank you! for sharing, I can really! relate to what you said torn between lonesome sometimes and perfectly fine most of the time, I think if I could touch base with those lonesome feelings before they get so! intense, have some middle ground sometimes, but I dont feel them inbetween!, perhaps they are deep hidden and need to come out more. I am not married I have a sister who is who has two children. I have great! friends, but nothing quite like finding that special someone who is right for us. Kim

I am torn between being lonesome sometimes and perfectly fine most of the time. My eldest brother tells me these urges I have will soon pass. He has just turned 60, so he is supposed to be wise. But he is also still married. Thank you for your heartfelt response Kim.

Jean, loved the whimsy feel, and I do the same often.

Whimsy....fanciful behaviour. Indeed it is Amy. More like fantasyful. Thank you for stopping to comment.
