here i am
minus the dance
with just a gemstone...
i burried the peridot
and swallowed the two citrines
lost the amethyst
and now i give you
the garnet

i promise
to return later
when i grow more
rubies, diamonds and pearls
they grow in my hair, you know
but only when i drink milk
and the milking cow is dry
so just give me time
if not in this life,
in the next
i will come
with plenty

until then
you can have this one

i like the flow here. i'm gonna keep reading it for meaning to see if i can figure it out a little better...then i'll come back

I adore this, for its simplicity and the images.

i promise
to return later
when i grow more
rubies, diamonds and pearls

nice. Very nice, indeed.

... and promises "must" be kept! -- *smiles* -- :9


And I know about the dry titty cow too ... mine been spurtin' powdered milk for quite awhile now -- *LoL*

there are themes that remind me how interrelated we really are there are so many movies that show this i am seeing how in here we so often write the same way just connect the dots and follow each letter in "you can have my gem". thanks for giving this one and here you can have a sip of "mothers milk" to keep the treasure full.

visual images remind me of visionquest past I see gems like topaz &
turquoise, ok I'm good now . .[]
