But if you touched me, ever softly so,

To give a brush that’s barely there to feel,
I might assume this secret tease was real.
The fun is that I’d never really know.
Amusingly
Trade glances at a cafe sparingly
josyift 2022
when she is sipping tea rebelliously.
“Oh, how long do you sit and stare at me?”
She takes me like a pillow – falling-ly!
Tell it Again
There’s something quite

peculiar
Hidden in your
pretty.
A riddle –
I’m not witty;
My laugh is amatory.
Sorry I’m Late
I thought my thoughts for you were dead and old.

Oh no, like chrysalis they only slept.
And while my tender feelings sweetly grow’d,
You grew your wings and flew away. The End.
My Garden in May
Ruddy Rose had reeled in reservation

and Jasmine whitened wildly in fear
when Plum had plucked pink petals to reveal
her purple plumps – Alas, love’s in the air!
