in the sun

If I were a chocolate biscuit
I should like to lie
upon your belly
in the sun.

Run upon you
sweet and warm,
feel your fingers
try and catch me
down your sides,
as I slide.

You could pass me
to your lips
where I could die
so I could live.

Dear Craig,

This is a edible poem. I would go well with a red port, like Taylor's. Welcome back. I have missed your golden pen. Brian

Hi Kels

I wish there was another way to spell lie that didn't invoke the thought of telling untruths. Lay sometimes seems a bit too weighty for me, but thats me. Cheers and thanks Craig

now that's a new one

my daughter and I sometimes bite the end off Tim Tam biscuits and suck milk up through them like the kids we are, but to suck biscuits through hot Milo, now that would require a very large straw. cheers Craig

Hi Nina

yes I am rather envious of you northerners and your summer, though we should not complain as our winters are mild by comparison. cheers Craig
