Just looking over these again, and Laura’s comment made my night 500 times better. I wrote those lines.

OH, this part:

I do not shrink, any
longer, when you
touch me.
I came alive
some time ago. I dance closer to
you now.

shivers.

Wow, these are beautiful! I love what you say about the lines coming like river rapids, never knowing where they’re going, but so beautiful when you look at the words flowing over top of one another.

I seriously have to make the next party…

I told my husband that these poems just fascinate me. Some lines I remember– some I know I wrote– and some I swear I never saw on Tuesday night. I love how you turn it all into something cohesive and truly poetic.

The last one made me giggle. That was me, getting snippy about frappes.

Wonderful!! We need to get our twoems published in a collection. These are some of the best yet. I will be back to re-read them.

It’s just so much fun to see how you arrange our series of tweets. I wrote a poem from my tweets that I’ll publish Thursday. I had looked at them several times without “seeing” the poem until yesterday, when all the lines wrote themselves onto the screen.

I’m staying turned for your next batch.
