[hometext] => Oh ... what a fantastic bus ride to work this morning ... this just grabbed me and would not let me go ... I had to write it out on the freeway
[bodytext] => ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In my mind you take me
Flights of fancy, fantasy
And I don’t know how you do it
And I don’t want to be free
I could be tongue tied forever
Never more again to speak
If it meant that you would save me
If by you I were released
And I’m lying in this darkness
And I’m hoping you will see
That I could be meant for greatness
But I need you here with me
I’ve been waiting now for ages
For some one to come along
Who can hear these words as I do
Who can help me sing these songs
If it means that for a moment
For an hour, for a day
That is all that you can give me
Before you must go away
I would sacrifice most everything
To take you in my arms
I would hold you here against me
Until all my strength was gone
And I’d relive every moment
And I’d paint the memories
And I’d write the words of our songs
To live on eternally
But I don’t know where to find you
You exist within my dreams
Yet this bruise of love still lingers
On my neck, your lips did leave
And the trails of your fingers
As they traveled down my back
Seem supportive of the issue
Other evidence does lack
Oh and maybe I’m just crazy
Oh and maybe I’m insane
Oh and maybe you don’t feel it
Maybe you don’t feel the same
But I’ve got to keep believing
‘Cause I’ve got to live this dream
And I can’t live without knowing
That I have tried everything
‘Cause
In my mind you take me
Flights of fancy
Fantasy

Wow, Scott...
This is one of your best, I think.
This is the type of poem that you don't want to comment on..in case the comment spoils it, somehow.
What a fantastic dream to have, and you have written it out so beautifully, too.
I don't think it makes you crazy, or insane.
Great write,
Phil xxx |

Flawless.... All the way. My dearest Nazzy, a genuine expression of despair and longing, beautiful with its radiant images. You're always painting a masterpiece, cheri. Keep on dreaming your dreams, douce ami... Sometimes, they do come true. And I hope this one, of everlasting love and passion, will come true for you. You deserve the best, my friend. Exquisite, like a perfectly aged wine, deliciously bittersweet. A melody that should be heard and sung by all. As always, you have left me breathless, and I repeat the same pattern, as I reread your words again... Thank you... so much for this gorgeous tale. Fly away on flights of fancy... and indulge in this perfect fantasy once more. Fabulous. All my love. Forever,
Your petit fleur,
Stephy. |

The urgency... the clarity... the... everything... of this just absolutely unravels me.
Wow, Nazzy.... this thing hit me harder than anything you've written before (and there how been so many extraordinary poems, so many incredible songs)... this... has my heart racing. Wherever you are - you ought to walk out the door right now and shout this at the world. Damn... this is potent.
Man - this is nowhere near delicate, but I've got to tell you... it just feels like something tore through you and splattered itself upon the page. And then... burst into flames.
Imagining you must still be feeling a bit rocked for having experienced this one,
~SNM~ |

Lovely, lovely, lovely!
I've also had poems that won't leave my mind alone. So I know how that is.
I like the dream you took me through from this poem.
Keep up the great work! |

Naz,
It's facinating the way you deal with the facinating. Your mind seems to be an endless resource of fantasy, and creativity. The way you sort of stir things up with vivid imagery and clever verse is amazing.
Another example of superb talent and inspiration
Will, Terry |

| Nicely done, Scott. It seems like an evolving conversation, and sure is different than the blood flower writes. J. |
