It hardly made a difference to me,
weak brews and quiet sympathy
solitary pursuits of places and things
but never leaving the ground
no, never with a heart on wings

one in a million
- probably more
so few possibilities
yet still unsure
but that’s how it happens,
chance encounters and arrows of fortune
laying us low in our joy

Now it’s coffee and sweet glances,
Butterfly kisses and slow dances
(In the hallway
In the shower
In the bedroom)


from alone to partnered bliss
- can it get much better than this?
if it does I’m a goner,
because the sweet rhythms
and laughter and strong java
are romancing me, romancing me
off my feet

Now it’s coffee and sweet glances,
Butterfly kisses and slow dances
(In the hallway
In the shower
In the bedroom).

Beginning with you wonderful and quite interesting opening comment this had me from the beginning. Great job, fantastic job, hell this is gentle and enchanting. Wonderful contemporary work! Romantic, enjoyable, and light. Cannot think of a better piece to read on a Saturday afternoon, especially these days!

WONDERFUL, BRAVO!

Gee... and here I thought I was the only one that brought a cup of coffee into the shower with them. LOL

I'm likin' you in the Lyrics category, Spikito. You had my attention with the title, of course (I mean, come on... 'tis the stuff dreams, no?). As others have noted, the author's note is an attention grabber as well.... though, I'm not sure why anyone would want to suggest an acceptable or preferred timeframe on lovin' - that seems unnecessarily restrictive to me. *wink*

I'm teasing... but I do seriously like this very much. The chorus is a treat.... four delights, three locations... yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! you've put together a fine list there. I'd give you my "how many outta four" but I'd need clarification first on whether an enthusiatic imagination factors in to the calculations (?). : )

S, this truly swept me away ..

I agree with snems .. the title is perfectly wonderful!! (And I do mean
wonderful!!! lol) Savour these timeless moments, dear poet, for
we know not when the coffee runneth out! lol

seriously .. the third verse is so beautifully captivating, I almost envy
you. :) Adorable in every way.

Spike you got the perfect blend here of light-heartedness and romance. Its so easy to go sickeningly over the top when talking about love, but this was beautifully gentle and pleasing to read.
At the moment I have to agree with you on that author's note though! Reading this made me feel unbearably wistful!

Take care,
Dom
