Like A Teapot

Whose, SC? And is it a piece of a larger work?

And my word, you have long legs!

LOL

The guy who is crazy about me. I thought it were obvious. May need to make a new tag.

Yeah, my long legs, or pillars, are obvious.

Alabaster pillars

Need to look up "Alabaster". Sounds like Alabama.

I doubt it is derived from Alabama.
Edit: pale yellowish pink. Can't paste the link from my phone.

Calcium carbonate.

That doesn't sound too sexy.

Actually, I doubt that it would make very good pillars, but it is pretty durable in smaller pieces ... I used to have a table lamp, the base and shaft of which were alabaster.

Look up in free dictionary instead. #3

Hehehe. I already looked it up, comrades. I meant to say my legs are sexier.

It's a colour as well, dW, stop twisting the meaning of my words for the worst.

LOL ... I wasn't ... I'm just very literal about some things.

"Alabaster skin" always sounds a bit like the colour of corpse-flesh to me, and when I think that our hostess is a pretty Asian ...

Sorry, Dax.

okay, okay dW
I can be a bit sensitive when I think people are twisting the meaning of my words. no harm done.

Hell, I twist the meaning of my own words!

One for you solid.


I GAVE YOU.

And what did he give YOU?

I GAVE YOU.


When I was small I gave you
My chewing gum with pocket fluff
Still clinging
And you showed me your pants.

When I was bigger, I gave you
A daisy garland for your hair
Yellow and white.
And you pressed it into a book.

Later still, I gave you
A silver locket on a chain
With my photograph
And you laughed with delight.

In Love-Sick adolescence I gave you
A mail-order ring for your finger
And you pretended
It was a beautiful diamond.

Older still, I gave you
My word of honour
And a promise forever
And you opened your arms to me.

The chewing gum is gone
The flowers, faded and dry
The silver locket, thin and worn
The photograph aged and wrinkled
The ring, just brass and glass.


Only the promise remains intact.

and very beautiful words

Bravo!

Daxer and dW: I like Britannica's explanation the best. Kind of match my solid pillars.

Nice poem, Graham!

Thanks, Kim!

Nice pillars , solid, I think you should have posted those earlier
Healthy alabastar !!

You are seeing only one pillar, daxer.

Like desert rain
You came
And with you
The promise
Of a new life
Returning
A long lost beat

Too much love saving for you, SC

Is that right?

Have a good day, DpRabbit.

It is, I think

One pillar makes for good understanding (there's a pun there), with two you can carry the world.
