I would love to know <br />Entertain in moonlight... put on a show? <br />Mine never speaks... but it listens to me <br />I promise I’m not crazy... just lonely <br />Who knows, I’m not sure... but one thing is true <br />Don’t feel so alone... when I think of you!<br /><p style="text-align: left;">© Debbie Razey 2023 - Violet Moon Poetry</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7-D0euiasm5xSF7TJcK9z4rL4SZpSWn1IJTRkAgvmyFde4OAIq4h7Gca1QGZQZ4g_Xwc0X092pzDkvI4gpETsCDaZtDSNG1fzAPc9dHkjHPJOVAQQPocgY3a8aXzngQfiJb-OpBqxH-z0bBXfyt8VQpKvn68y0zF1Cp7gX4hRc3NjLOnIAS50bE-L/s900/60EBFCB3-2443-45CF-B9E2-B744649784A2.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="900" data-original-width="900" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7-D0euiasm5xSF7TJcK9z4rL4SZpSWn1IJTRkAgvmyFde4OAIq4h7Gca1QGZQZ4g_Xwc0X092pzDkvI4gpETsCDaZtDSNG1fzAPc9dHkjHPJOVAQQPocgY3a8aXzngQfiJb-OpBqxH-z0bBXfyt8VQpKvn68y0zF1Cp7gX4hRc3NjLOnIAS50bE-L/s320/60EBFCB3-2443-45CF-B9E2-B744649784A2.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>Aesthetica Poetica - Violet Moon Poetryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03924273920725428156noreply@blogger.com0
