Posted by Tony Whitaker on 09/14/07 at 08:42 AM This one gave me all kinds of images. I feel the need to wash my hands. Powerful images from the use of "syrup" and all its charactersistics... |

Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 10/06/07 at 11:05 AM this poem is so tender and loving and artful and a delight to read, as it offers those two tidbits of delectable surprises at the end -----like commas. |
