You were magic in my eyes To beautiful you were Your womanly charm burned Through my soul Perhaps I was to young to Handle the fire within you But my young heart plunged Into the vortex of your Spirit, and you let me taste The kiss of your mouth Your electric eyes never told Me that I was playing with fire Yet I was a fool for passion You drew a portrait of my face And smiled as I relished your Talent We held hands in church but how Was I to know the devil was in Your heart? Men were struck down by your Beauty A twitch of your finger, your Black hair catching the sun and I was undone You made me believe I could crush A mountain with your sensual smile And you stold my soul with your naked Body But you found love in the arms of another And deaths tears killed my soul My love had been taken from me My heart thrown to the wind All that's left are my scribbled Thoughts on crumpled paper I need me back again What did I do to deserve This loss? I lay in the dust waiting For life.. Cafe

True story about my first real love affair when I was twenty four.

I've notified the old hags sister, who is known by the woodsmen as Hagzilla Sue. Perhaps she can fill the void in our wretched souls. Cafe

Kickit.. So happy for you. Really. You've always been a great guy in my mind and no doubt your new found other will discover that very quickly. Three cheers! Cafe
Need to throw in a little cabbage since the ham is already in! Apple pie with nutmeg instead of cinnamon. My Mom always used nutmeg.
Cotton candy wouldn't hold up in water - soggy chips. Maybe singing off key!

Kathy.. Yes, but if I have to sing off key I'll need to ham it up a bit. The cabbage patch dolls might boo me. But I never do more than two shows a night. Cafe I've just hired a pom-pom girl
Won't be able to catch anyone on Halloween since I'll be working late. Hope someone encounters a favorable match at a party, gets a big surprise...my grandkids will be enjoying parks events here in Tampa. SM
Jim it's most endearing to value what we experience in our first love encounter. Your vivid memory stays with you I'm sure, and keeps reminding you what was then.
Thanks for the exceptional read.

Lindsy.. Thank you dear. Actually, that young love experience taught me not to throw myself hook, line, and sinker into a relationship before knowing what their character was all about. But that was like a million years ago. Cafe
I, too, had a love that made my heart sing and he broke it when he left me for another. I look at these sort of loves as Northern Stars- they guide us where we need to be.
My hair isn't long enough to qualify as Lady Godiva. So I may just have to end up riding the horse to the castle. Well cloaked.

ReaderOfSouls.. It just so happens that we have an up and coming trip to the Northern Star. Come as you are.

Some woman told me that I was cotton
candy and a bag of chips. Is that true
or should I increase my medication?
Lol.

A few hours in a boiling kettle might do
me some good.

kettle eating a bag of chips and singing
about Leprechaun's?
Just checking.
