Xox World

XOX World ( A Valentine to Sun) caressing my face weightlessly and soundlessly. . . . Sun’s light wakes me as I dress myself he peeks through my window and invites me to play My neck tingles as I'm driving with the top down. . . . Sun in hot pursuit I stop at the lake his bright reflection ripples where ducks are floating drifting blissfully I surrender my body to his warm embrace as Sun’s strength recedes sky blazes orange and red. . . . but I just feel blue night finds me at home rubbing lotion where he left A scarlet hickey For PD's "MY FIRST 2012 VALENTINE *CONTEST* HAIKU~ ONLY~ XOX Poetry Contest PS Love, Andrea (hope I did that in time!!)

I'm kidding, I am not bothering you. I want to see the difference between your old haiku and new ones. Maybe then I might understand. Andrea. Everyone has a different view when it comes to haiku. SKAT

I was driving with the top up, as it's winter time, you know. Sliding round the corner as I hit a patch of snow. Your problem with your hickey does'nt pull my heart strings much. I hit dry road and then got towed, because I slipped the clutch.

Cute poem and we are getting spring like weather and I am in my glory. ha ha Patti and Aaron were in a car accident today. A lady ran a red light and luckily they were in the suv rather than the car. The air bags blew and the the suv is totalled. So much for a fantastic new year. A cop was behind her so she has a good witness but man oh man we got a scare. Suv is only 3 months old but at least they are safe. love phyl
