hair with sounds of scissors,
slowly is like creaking a door
and sure enough someone new is
or wait a minute I haven't seen you
in a while like this,
a snip of a trim locking
the room with your appearance
before experience takes us from museum
cringe hinge
so last balance is feel of hanging picture
on wall from pretty to very gold blonde
soothing never scathed for bathing
not angled for ankle look
awning aw
a slip of warmth
you, daughter can go to your meeting
for embracement compensation
of what was on your shoulders,
even just via smiles
breaks load of look
and I have the felt of replacement
as I gather trimmings with mcs
like parts I could only see without perfume
handled as I put fork down for spoon
with steady knife at right time of organs pressed
way dad danced a strain, I sang, he stopped, I had echo held
and knob touched opened to sunny windy day
by myself has knobbly knees
as on way father dances a child
out of step but delighted
but I dig a deep breath if not nauseaus because of scoop swing
to approximate branch needed but not in yard
but acid rain isn't by distant soak
escort courtesy or cooperation

Oh!
You truly moved MY day with this write
snip-snip the sound of scissors
my strength gathered in gold
left me
a halo clipped
a short bob of motion
swaying free
where is my dance
stepped upon by others
my toes ache their careless joy
my songs end in shrieks
so twirl me into autumn's arms
and memories of fragrance
lost in spring
come swiftly
september
Thank you for loosening my unpractised Muse! I enjoyed this write so much.
Love
Myra

I tied not to deprive the poet by avoiding emoticons and the applause, and you showed quite enthusiasm's strength by itself
Myra you more than quote even but gave offshoots, something I've always loved doing around others captivation so thank you!
task of no exaggeration with your first threshing of the verses per se. and I thought today...
I hear chirping
and it's like a haircut
as I want to turn down my strands behind my ear
to see such things
which isn't an obstruction to think
towards holiness
loving nature we're meant to be in
life size with a sizzling
while endurance is enriching
with ultimate connection
and entrusted sibilant
so your waltz into worries reflecting my general one has some choreographical point of poignancy with frequency of unforseen conditions like also recently watched --
don't start towards sad ending
skipped dangerous holes
to then song that was strange of words
without tune worse
than daughter realizing
running into her own knees
after left obstacleles
with selves clumsiness
unable to be less lazy
just in scenic freedom
that can have accident
sans spinner
but the gentle flicks of branches don't have average of scratches and is scheduled paradise in special continuation of seasons and anticipation more than our increase...
I saw a honey colored grasshoper this afternoon away from towering neighborhood sunned --
back to question more than hello of here I am for whiles,
like existence prompt
I guess I took a turn, and it was as fun with you, thanks so much~

You are quite something, do you know?
I simply love your way of writing ... You have a unique voice and splash words on screens like a true Picasso!
Babies are my subject too, for I had five of my own and I often find myself nursing all those who are deprived of love ...
Please never stop writing in the way you do ... Whenever I feel like unwinding, I will come run your word marathons and mazes!
Love to you, Bamsy ...

no outdoing
Myra we don't need to build a ramp as much as yield and I find it believable you could sign for "a female given name: from a Latin word meaning “extraordinary.” and I'm happy you found me impactful for playful remembering
I feel a gusto for human detailing, that doesn't have to disgust but neither astonish as someone. It's not that undetermined we can think which can be for loving development too. or as my daughter seems perked when I can break it up well, 'you're funny' which isn't sad common necessarily if you are too...
your approbation of my prioritized topic is familiar as my maiden background, being a child of six. however, I have a fervor with one to know upbringing intensely, and as you have a heart for those leaked liberally rather than filled a miscarriage has had me return to sources of abundance in basics forming no good riddance. as a hold versus invention of baby swing in which sixty minutes might not equate to natural affection oscillations compared to snuggly with home work understanding lull; oddly this possibly parallels my personal repelling from spelling with some emoticons, maybe gadgets of our emotions. not dishearteningly empty in intention but history gets inflexible... however, I'm not meaning to have half ideas as breath!
I guess I'm not a sprinter again, but schedule can use quick exercise. I do have thoughts sectioning what life consistently shows, but I don't need to be prolix with us all having to privately look lol. yet I want to tend to what's getting distended~
Freedom is in our names for each other and orientation,

Well, Precious ...
we can go on and on like this forever, lol, and you will have me hysterical soon, for I still jump on my bed and on trampolines, while doing summersaults in my head! And believe me, it is not less real! For: the consequences truly are! Hahahahahahahahaha
You are a tonic of pure bubbling living water.

ears as shoes
marvelment I'll try not to say wow too loud...
I admire your connection between energy and enthusiasm, and imagination can be kinetic; yet it can also take us off course, as away from the ground of flowers so to speak when a face isn't normalized for new but as sun without rays -- I just can't relate to turn the illustration into a yes per se beaming. I've recently toned my whistle down to tsk just over unnatural emoticons for me. so roses are mutually seen ~
don't want to be a strainer of smiles but I need one more or few disciplines for my insomnia even hee-hee,
babies are my subject
