    The warmth of my mouth
    is by your breath fanned, embers
    heated by reply.

    My lame attempt....

    Silence screams within me
    Your ears deafened by the sound
    Our book closes forever.

    Not bad Janine, but I think you got six syllables in that last line. I'll modify it.

    Book closes forever,
    life ends with a small whimper.
    Sun goes by again.

    Wow, that is an excellent one.

    let's meet in Florence by the

    Ponte veccio,
    the old bridge in Italy,
    would be like a dream.

    would be like a dream,
    like walking on arias
    drinking Chianti

    Sweet red potatoes

    Hmmm, I'm going to get some food.

    Tempting melody
    played upon an ancient lute
    wittles the hours.

    Chinese or Italian?

    wittles the hours
    to diminutive specks like
    sunbeam captured dust
