Poetry
My Conundrum Heavy clouds of longing and their tears must wash me out to sea - To where each time a mountain with the face of heaven - my love's ascending thee - Until just that moment when it is written and it's plain for all to see - The clouds must brake and in a stream, I crash back to the sea - Why, when sunlight clasps the earth from heaven and moonbeams kiss the sea When all that comes with love must be perfection - why What is all this sweet work worth if thou cannot love me? © Kates 2008 Girl Talk Heaven scented flowers heaped, while lights a-flashing, disco traffic - 'thinking' - is this where I belong girls, is this where I belong - But heaven scented flowers heaped my heart, and dance, in the midst of verse song keeps girls, in my heart they'll never weep - So, here it is, my answer, but are you thinking, then how could this be wrong, how could this be wrong girls; how when he's made of song - Let dance embrace of my heart, so bonded - our every movement one - Until the last to dance this dance, let's make it last, I'm in a trance, my heart forever the song girls, my heart forever this song - With a rainbow where once my lowly path - dreams are possible, what's said apart - I know where I belong girls, let's hope he comes along - "I'm in his video - How cool is that?"
