The music of choice has such a voice as to make the walls vibe in this telling place.

A Telling Place

In the room of my peace
There is a lady of grace
And two chairs placed
So lovers can talk
And click glasses
From their place
Eyes can dart and see
Scenes to make the heart swell
While tinkling voices laugh as they tell
Each other tall tales
Laced with truth
That pinks lying cheeks
In the harmless telling
Of long lovers' lies
Such is the room of my peace

Jim, I think this is my favorite of yours so far. It just has a plain voice, but full of passion and honesty...

"that pinks lying cheeks"... Jim that's an incredible line and image!

Ah yes, the warm, and ready completeness that can exist between two who play gently with each others souls. No hiding, scorn or hurtful truths here, just a gentle jousting interface.
