you tickle me,
spin me 'round and
spoil me rotten
slipping into my purse
flickers of denim blue laughter
courting, grinning,
all the while
winking at danger
spin me once again
then wrap me 'round
your heart like a ribbon
what a treat you are
what a gift you've given
Rene ~ November 2011
Happy Thanksgiving

30 pennies in the hat:

Love this one! You have nailed the character of Newman falling in love. Well done.
nice...that is a cool kinda love and affection...
I really like this. You've captured the spirit of the photo.
wonderful-such spirit of love
LOVE this photo and what you've written to go along with it! I would have love to be a fly on the wall during that photo session. Makes me giggle that they have their shoes on.
Love it!! Nothing like being in love!

Everything from the quote to the last line is stunning Rene...love this!!

Oh, I really went for this one. Lively and great fun.
Laughter and love circle each other like Paul & Joanne - nicely written.
Love certainly makes the world spin...

your heart like a ribbon

Lovely imagery that says wild abandon and entices the reader to give love a spin :-)
I spun round your imagery and laughed at its playful creativeness. Very nice!
some day...
Love it Rene! And such a beautiful and sweet quote from Joanne Woodward.
I love "denim blue laughter."
Most enjoyable...
Such a great take on the photo and their long-term love. I especially love the slipping into my purse flickers of denim blue laughter. Perfect image!
