    Aren't we still supposed to use the last two words of the last post?

    I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.

    you are supposed to begin with the last two syllables-not words.

    refresh
    take it easy
    all the muck beneath you
    has been scrubbed, the place cleaned up
    Begin!

    Begin
    now, for waiting
    means that tomorrow's gains
    will be lost in today's missing
    pieces.

    pieces
    put together
    may join the broken heart
    but how will you hide the broken
    heart lines?

    heart lines
    should be start lines
    begin here, travel there,
    don't stray too far, or this dim path
    will fade

    will fade
    and never bloom
    again; the roses and
    daisies of heart need a sprinkle of
    your love

    Thanks mazHur. I think you had to correct me on that once before.

    your love
    is scaring me
    holding me like a vise
    trying to make me cry uncle
    I can't
    I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.

    I can't
    imagine life
    without your smile, your eyes,
    your sparkle, and your eagerness,
    and you

    and you
    require my most
    valiant escapades,
    the adventures I aspire to
    and crave

    and crave
    a piece of your
    kind understanding; we,
    in silent yearning, beg, the moon
    and I.

    buck up!
    straighten that neck,
    throw those shoulders back, and
    get your arms and legs ready for
    more work!
