just like james taylor

google images


hold me close 
and sing
slowly,
pretty please

gliding 
up and down
fingers coaxing
 melodies

strum me
gently
tuck my hair
behind my ears

tune my senses,
baby
go on and tell me 
your stories

about mind tripping
to Carolina
and how my
smile turns ya inside
out

take your time, 
don't hurry baby
i love to watch
your mouth

speak of fire
and rain
of love and
life without

how the sunsets
in Mexico
tiptoe
and tumble down 
the water spout

pull me in
go on 
make my 
heart race

 can't nobody 
but you,baby
put that 
smile on my face


do me wrong
ah, then do me
so right
let's get back 

to that place
we were 
on copperline
tonight

lovin' me sweetly
sugar
sharin' the roof 
you're on

 rockin' you 
while you're here
missin' you
when you're gone

    This took me places...and now I feel far away from home, but I know I'll get back there.

    Home run, my dear.

    Sweet. Reminds me of my old friend Greg's "Martin's Song." Here's a link. Think you'll really like it.

i don't like eggs but you knew this already i know you're thinking such a terrible waste but it's not, you see i'm feeding them to the dog she loves them just as much as i know she loved you and the way you walked her as if every single thing she sniffed mattered to you as well sorry, dear pardon my red wine opera crowd violin string tugging (your words) i ramble at breakfast like a fussy percolator but you knew this already morning is when i am most honest and vulnerable i know that's why you left after dinner oh god dammit you i miss you so much what i did before us is a mystery and what i do now is insanity i'm frying up eggs just to smell them again and to perhaps coax you down, from wherever you are for breakfast did you know i believe that there is still a ghost of a chance Rene Foran ~  April 2011 photo by Tess Kincaid for Magpie Tales click for more info
