Ties That Bind

Ruddy cheeks with carmine blush, Sharing whispers, soft and hushed; Secret meeting of the minds, Crimson veins are ties that bind.

Ruddy cheeks with carmine blush,

Sharing whispers, soft and hushed;

Secret meeting of the minds,

Crimson veins are ties that bind.

      Yes, it sure is Friday!

        Are you home from school already?? Or, no school today?

      2. melodylowes

        Snuck home for lunch – was in early for meetings and school photos, now leaving right away to be there for the afternoon..indulging in a quick dip in the blogging pond!

        Hope the temperature was just right, not warm enough to make you drowsy for the afternoon! You must live really close to the school!

        About 9 miles. Nice!

      5. Caddo Veil

        That IS nice–do you go home for lunch everyday?

      6. melodylowes

        I only work afternoons so this is the first time I was at school early – I usually just eat early before I go in.

        Oh I see–so you generally can sleep in a bit?

      8. melodylowes

        Yes – although it rarely happens, between meetings and appointments and life obligations – but yes, it allows me some flexibility in my day, which is perfect just now.

    Nice poem to go with that vibrant photo – I love reds!

      ME too – those are my favorites, I think!
