With the melded effects of sleigh bells and Flamenco finger cymbals,
You come, lively and stimulatingly streaming into my consciousness.
And I am awakened to pleasant interests and quiet challenges.
Wanting to let none of the experience flow by unappreciated,
I am torn between the impulse to immerse my Self … or drink it all in.
Both promise satisfactions … and the moment seems to be rushing by.
Neither knowing … nor caring … from whence you come,
Nor to what … of the infinite possibilities … You are hurrying toward.
I am a bit overwhelmed … while reassured … by this wonder that is …
your Presence.

Caringly ...
You, Dear Lime, would be expert on the effect of being a blessed 'Presence.' I am continually blessed with your friendship as an appreciated element of my life.
Lovingly ...
I've always believed a man that writes - poetry, stories, blogs - is very sexy. Reading your poems, JM, I know it's true!
You, Lovely NiteByrd, just made me feel very good, indeed! I thank you so much for your kind words!
