Siren Song This is the one song everyone would like to learn: the song that is irresistible: the song that forces men to leap overboard in squadrons even though they see beached skulls
More and More More and more frequently the edges of me dissolve and I become a wish to assimilate the world, including you, if possible through the skin like a cool plant's tricks with oxygen...

My youngest daughter :) and where in the poem I say 'she says' believe me, I am quoting directly.
The Changeling Blackberries are not sweet as such. And neither is she. Much. She was a baby in a manger. (I think some fairy must have changed her for a stranger little stranger.)
A six-stanza word-flirt... your measure never fails to measure up. I'm still giggling :)
Your love is as beautiful as your rage. x
Urbanity and finesse, insanity, a soft caress - of words, like grace. Your words taste better than cinnamon :) x
This is beautiful.

But the results are so good, lol. And your vocabulary continues to improve... my favourite line: As meaning meanwhile halts upon inane, Nice :)

Natatorial Come, little rivers, run. Come creeks and creeping courses, come find you out an inlet, if you will. Waters, thoughts and lives are never still.
