Vanilla Twilight

Vanilla twilight runs down my fingers As I lick them I think of you And don't feel so alone Come walk with me Thru the cold November rain Come stay with me Because I needed time Remember when it was like paradise Let's walk the garden path of love I think I saw you try to love me Even when you see it's not me She was damaged and he did not care he loved her anyway It made no difference to him She made his heart beat way deep down inside Thursday 12/ 10 / 2015 4:30 pm Was watching " The Green Mile 1999, remember when John Coffey" Michael Clark Duncan went to help the boss's wife, Melinda? The Green Mile John Coffey Cures Melinda Part 2 - 3 If you haven't seen this movie, you should.

I loved the imagery in this one. I have not seen the movie in a very long time so what you said did not ring a bell for me. Anyway, GREAT poem ,Debbie.

I haven't seen the film, but I will look for it now. You have an elegant way of summing this all up. Amazing how you zero in on the important details.

I understand where you're going with this Debbie because I have seen the movie. It was very moving. You have created that feeling very well in your poem. 7 ; )

How could anyone pass up a title like that and wow, the poem that comes with it is gorgeous. This was stunning Debbie, very soft and alluring, I could feel the desire and the questioning thoughts at the end. "I think I saw you try to love me" That line was fantastic I wish I had written that. This has something for everyone, well, except maybe chocolate lovers. :)
