~Tripping the Light~


 


Light the incredible night


Long amazing trip it will be


Self-pleasure’s an irony –


Two hearts beating as one


Like a trip through Shangri-la –


In a glass-bottom boat


Retirement from the dance floor –


A one way trip to reality


The music gears up once again


A return to the moon on lighted wings –


You and your partner dressed to the nines


Whichever you turn you see the other’s face


Net of the spoken word cast aside


Your love for one another sentimentality


“Let me be your light, be my light” –


Like a waterfall that dances on the sea


Trip your bodies – shoot the spirit on


Further than love’s target ever shone


Tripping the light sears and stays –


Breaks old doubts and fears


Close your eyes in your endless light


Love’s lamp lights one another –


Unconditionally, two as one, exacting beams


Passionately caressing each other –


Tripping the light forever.

OMG how I wish I could have someone to trip the light with. Because if you're just alone, then it isn't tripping, it's stumbling. Thanks for sharing this lighthearted trip through the Shangri-La of your mind.



May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little siser, Barbie

Weekends In New England by Linda Alexander

Love, romance, innocence, intrigue, danger, and lust. Life is complicated, and love even more so. Life, and love, can be hazardous to a lady's health. Especially if she's fallen in love with a married pop star.
