The Lotus Flower <><><> I am your lotus That you forgot And left by riverside Where women wash With babes Pressed to their breasts <><><> You took me beneath Magnolia And sighing I shed a tear Of what would Now become <><><> I squeeze the Damask cloth That binds me To another world Where I am free <><><> ©EMG04 |

Perhaps it 'is' the brevity of these words, Emma, but I felt it had an eastern touch to it, like a translation of something which became softly misted in reading. You are experimenting well, I like to change from one to another as it lets you play with words and innuendo. I enjoyed this one very much, Zydha |
