    Cider Press

    Thank you for reading this. Not everyone is a fan of cider, but the image stuck in my mind....

    Why is it I can't both love and laugh in reactions at the same time? No matter. Thanks again, tim.
  3. Whew! Can't blame Girard for his boredom; twenty years of feeding the Master like that...but how long will it take for the blond boy across the street to become weary of being Sully's flavor of the day? I shudder.

    it will give the gallon of cider in my fridge a whole new taste....

    How very kind you are. One wonders how the apples feel, if one can be anthropomorphic about it. It can be quite fun, really. Thank you for reading!
  6. Ooooh, spooky and scary, that's certain. And seductive, too...

    Cider Press Now take me to your secret lair out in the barn, beneath the stair, and lay me out as you desire to press your weight upon me there. And while I am as you require within that place where we retire, the season's tastes I will express are warmer than an autumn fire. My blushing skin will you undress, beneath you all my moves confess, my urgent need to be remade, so by your arts my body bless. Transform me then, I'm not afraid, for in
  8. A Series of Seductive, Serious or Silly Rubayats for Autumn. With thanks to AC Benus for showing us all how to write in this form.
  9. Whew! So much to read...so little time. Think I may need to take one of those speed-reading courses. To be followed by a speed-commenting course....
  10. Love may or may not conquer all, but it certainly helps make some things more palatable. And 'lovable nerd' feels so good, you caused a discernible blush. thank you so much for reading these, Gary!

    Chapter 1

    Oh, I forgot how tense I get reading scary stories. This one certainly got my heart rate going. How is Woody going to handle the truth now?

    Goodbyes

    Two immensely sad poems. I hear arguments and silence in these, minor disagreements magnified into major conflicts, and deep hurt. If you hear my hand on yours, close enough to ease pain, then poetry has done its task.
  13. I send you my hugs and encouragement for Closure. You are indeed loved. Silly Cat made me laugh, for you describe the once-mighty feline to a T. Thank you for these.

    Chapter 12

    What a chapter of alarms and diversions. Don's mystery pain had me terribly worried. But then there was that sensation and that twitch...the wedding and Harry pushing Louis to start an affair... highs and lows in every page. And you saved the best for last - Don on crutches! But under it all is the constant love Louis has for Don, and Don for Louis. Beautifully realistic, wonderfully enveloping.
  15. You are very nice to say so. I can go to bed blushing...
  16. I relate fully. The story will unfold, and possibly in an unanticipated way. But now I wish you peaceful rest, and tasty morsels of the best; A sunrise joyful, warm and bright to follow slivered moon at night. Hugs.
  17. You just made my day, jp. I think I just grew a couple of sizes....
  18. I wouldn't want a piece of that, either. Good for Ben.
  19. Ethan, miserable and broken, at least goes to a good place and person to recover. Maybe he will listen and move on. Maybe Caleb will slowly fade, even as the new baby takes his place. And maybe that is what was meant to be. But what of Caleb?
  20. I shall have to ask Michael how they look...
  21. Thank you for trying these on for size. Both of these are principles on which bits of modern life are founded, and worth a bit of poetic fun. Hugs!

    There is an emptiness I feel I this. There is cavern in which your words echo with the sadness and waste of all this, and the grim outrage of betrayal. This poem is wet with the tears you shed, as should we all, for a man who knew too little love.
  23. You have made my day! That you should read these aloud at all makes me very, very happy. That your mum enjoyed them - and maybe you did too - lifts my heart this evening.
  24. It's always fun to find a scientific or mathematical principle that needs a poetic treatment. I believe Aditus put up the challenge of The Universal Gas Constant once....
  25. Who says nerds can't understand love? Thank you so much for reading these!
