! ! ! ! ! ! ! Respecting Geography! ! ! ! ! !

Rating: 5.0


Have I asked for too much?
bitten a morsel so big
that made my said unsaid terms
get muddled in my glut

Mangled sound bytes
are all that reach the shore
of your lofty auditory soiree

A palm I had stretched
to let the twisted lines
of fate unwind

We are rooted holed and bolted
in our own hemispheres
Your Junes would snow
My Decembers would sear

I respect geography! !

[ Responding to serialized answers to my Q#1; asked thrice]

love your optimism here Rehan! but personally, I have no regard for geography when it comes to loving....probably because I have travelled much in my life and see distance as only time in my own making. Yes you have asked for too much, if it is to turn the tap of love off, for your convenience of placing! lol but I suppose you can try....or settle for less than love can give. I would rather live without it than settle for second best. Smiling at you, off for some Educating Tai x

Very clever, I like the tone of this, almost a two way conversation but not... Great stuff Rehan. HG: -) xx
