Breakfast of Champions

G olden beams of sunlight
form a mosaic on morning clouds
a lover’s breath
morphs into a greedy sigh
                    a sugar coated moment
                           measured by desire
                                   meant to last forever
hungry morning lips will be sated
by the breakfast of champions

I believe some loves are meant to last forever, and this is a beautiful testament. Thank you for sharing your love with us, I hear it's your anniversary, (big smile) That's just so inspiring. Congratulations, I can only imagine the many times you had to bite your tongue to get there to the sugar coated moments most can only dream of.

[Lydia Shutter]

Indeed, it takes a bit of biting the tongue by both parties...and compromise. Thanks for the anniversary wishes and the review. Lydi**

I just knew I was missing out on something when I skip breakfast. It is the most important meal! Can really start the day off right, guess it's good I had a big lunch ;)

[Lydia Shutter]

:) Love your review, Dye. thank you. Lydi**

[Tom]

This makes a bowl of cornflakes look positively bland, even with a couple of spoonfuls of sugar lashed on top!

A sensuous treatise that had me drooling for more, splendid Lydia!

[Lydia Shutter]

[Lydia Shutter]

Well, I tried to say I was handing you a napkin to wipe away the drool, but the cyber gremlins apparently did not like that comment! :) Thanks for the review, Tom. Lydi**

[Tom]

They took it to wipe away their own drool first of all Lydia!!

[Lydia Shutter]

LOL you might be right, my friend!

[Kelly Scheppers]

They say it is the most important meal of the day...only "we" don't believe it has to include fiber, or calories! ; )

Lovely images, Lydi!

My best,
Kelly
