carve me to winter
the softest white cedar
make of my heart
a box by your bed
string me to star-bound
signs of ascension
souvenirs fell
in moments of bliss
pull of my passions
enough to remember –
and wrap every limb
with ribbon just so
dream me from memory
magpie and marble
wake me the night
– my name on your lips
. . .

I love your header – the butterfly in the wetted web.
Very beautiful, this – & love the word ‘carve’.
Thank you so much, my dear friend. Your kindness is so very much appreciated. Some things (like words) run deeper than skin. ~ Much love, Bobbie
again ~ I didn’t see a butterfly — I saw and imagined feathery desires and hopes.
I think she is refering to the header on the page……the butterfly caught in the web. I’m with you………feathers brushed to colors of life and love. Always we are here awaiting the now we imagine. ~ Love you, Deb. ~ Ever, Bobbie
Aahhh… tiny tiny ‘longings’ skipping here and there between the spaces and verbs… You write like a painter, beautiful sou! I wonder how your fingers would sound on a piano?
O, my sweet beautiful friend – you know me well……… Thank you. I’m not sure how my fingers would sound, although I know I can reach across nine keys…….. I suppose longing reaches. Thank you. ~ Love you, Me

I somehow connected with this. Don’t know how… you have this lovely spellbinding ability… Very deep, indeed. 🙂
O, thank you, dearest Tanumoy. Even now as I read this, it feels different than when I wrote it. But I am reading the latest book by Khaled Hosseini (which is quite fabulous by the way). I know a book is affecting me when it changes the feel of words not quite cold. You are quite the angel, my friend. I am blessed. ~ Love, Bobbie
Ah, Khaled Hosseini… you bring great joy to the heart when you utter his name! Good luck with your reading session. ~ Love, Tanumoy
As much as I loved the first two, I find this one even more mesmerizing……… You should definitely read it if you haven’t already. ~ Much love to you, Tanumoy. ~ Always, Bobbie
Now that dear Bobbie has recommended it, I’ll surely look for it in the nearest bookstores. Love, Tanumoy.
I’ve almost finished it……….and know you will love it, Tanumoy. I just know.
And now, I find I can hardly wait for you to read it! 🙂
Will be going to the bookstore today! *all excited and pumped up* 😛
I finished it last night. It was one of those books (you know the kind)…..you begin to grieve about 50 pages from the end, already knowing how much you will miss these characters….. Please let me know what you think. Much, Me
