He would be tall and still tan from summer
and glance at me sitting by the lake
and in the loneliness of an autumn morning
lay down his blanket and take
a look, out of a book
of my poems.
The smell of his clean skin
would waft by me, in the breeze
and I’d hear his rugged voice
make love to my words, with ease.

~Enchanting~
Linda,
It would be so enchanting to have a soul mate read your poetry. I suppose true love is like poetry in motion.
A soft blanket and your words soaring in an autumn breeze...ahhhhh!
This is a great idea! Charming poem.
Warm regards,
Kathy
So glad you know what I mean Kathy!!!
We must think alike...
Wouldnt it be great to have someone who is secretly in love with your poetry?
Sitting on that blanket by the lake, alone is poetry in itself!
Thank you so much Kathy for reading this one. I appreciate you taking the time.
XOXO

Linda,
I always make time for your poetry.
Hey...I am having the same technical difficulty you were having on the Showcase. I am not getting my comments via my email. I found yours by glancing at the recent comment box. If you have any trade secrets on how yours got repaired...please help me. It is a bummer to not be able to keep up with all the beautiful comments.
Your writing buddy and friend,

Kath, i thought it was fixed...but it was an email through someone's regular email..im still pretty frustrated as you as to why this is happening. i wonder how many others are having the same problem???

I think I am a dreamer...sometimes i sit by the lake in our town and wish something like this would happen...
