brimming with a zippety-whippity-do.

eyes that followed, no matter my corner,
nor settee where fleur-de-lis begged recline ~
and, no peace was found in voyeuristic laze.

Though Santa once had one who liked to eat parrots

it takes my breath away

leaves still summer green, 
a chilly breeze rustling some, turned golden early 
in anticipation of the fall.

Today a life changed but not for me, for someone, someone else.

I see a man whose hands are silk to me.
He's stunning in a suit (well-groomed is he).

He whisks me off to Paris or Mi...

Companion, friend and more;
Adventure was his middle name,
And I was never bored.
