the naked man
now with me stands
shed of his fears
from all his years
living in the cold
aged but not old
disrobed of all save for his words
waiting only to be heard
and his shattered heart
tattered and torn apart
longing to be made whole
the naked man
now with me stands
now with me stands
shed of his fears
from all his years
living in the cold
aged but not old
disrobed of all save for his words
waiting only to be heard
and his shattered heart
tattered and torn apart
longing to be made whole
the naked man
now with me stands
in my soul i will him hold

"A woman's heart is an ocean of secrets" says Rose in 'Titanic.' Wonder if I substitute "heart" with "soul" will the essence change.
Jenean, nice to see more of your passionate verses. Hope you are well within and outside.
Much love,
Susan
I hope the 'naked man' is giving you something nice for your birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
(See you at the party later. Yes, I will sing! Yes, I will bring wine!) :¬)

J-this is what everyone gets wrong. He doesn't want his heart made whole. His bareness and brokenness is what makes him beautiful. Without it, you wouldn't have noticed him, wanted to hold him. Lovely though

oh, but i forgot about the naked man - actually, i've suggested that he wear a bit more than just his birthday suit to my birthday celebration - but he's stubborn - so we'll see - well, i'm trying NOT to have everyone "seeing"!
touche' rick! touche'! point very well made! you are absolutely right! but sometimes the words just don't work that way - well, for me, and for me today, anyway! :)
wonderful to have you come by again - your presence is missed when you're on the road so much!
hello there, lovely rose! i'm humbled by your wonderfully kind words! and i'm thrilled you came by also!
Love this! The vulnerable naked man...yes bring him to your party!
:-)
My God, woman!
You're trying to shatter my eighth fence or what?
i'm glad... I'm glad because I am old but not aged. I'm glad because my heart is sometimes torn apart but not shattered, hardened from all those years living in the bitter cold.
I've come out of last Winter hardened and disillusioned.
Ma chère Jenean
c'est à ton tour
de te laisser parler d'amour...
In Québec, we don't sing "Happy birthday". Of course not... What you see above are the first words of what we sing to a loved one for his/her birthday!
Life is full of weird photographs done recently by yours truly! Woohoo...
