I won’t compare
myself.
Ever. The
intriguing stare
she provided
offered
a moment together,
and it
dribbled down
your chin. A
true indication
of your desire
for what she had
to offer. My eyes
casted down,
was something else
entirely.

We don’t really know another person until we open our own hearts honestly, and sometimes, not even then.
Provocative poem, Audrey. Sweet embroidery.

Many would say after years of knowing me, they don’t know me at all. Something I hope I’m fixing now. It felt nice to show this side of my poetry again. Thanks, Shari ♡

Interesting embroidery, Audrey. Did you create it?? It’s been a while since I did any needle work — hands probably too preoccupied with my keyboard, I guess. Lovely thoughts here. We don’t all get here with the same charms, do we? But you must never apologize for being YOU!!

No, I don’t do any needle work. This was done by my mother years ago. She tucked it away in one of my boxes and I came across it while unpacking. She did a great job, I think, and the picture inspired me. I won’t apologize. Promise. Hugs! You are a very busy lady!
