even I am puzzled that this phrase
did not prior
tickle my contronymic
poetic senses till now, for what is tender is of not always legal,
and what is legal is far far from
always tender

tender/tenderness

gotta rank in my 10 top fav
words,
nothing transforms
swifter than an
unexpected kiss,
a hug from behind,
the light stroke of a forefinger,
brushing a tear from cheek,
an errant bang, a lock from vision interference,
All Super Legal
gracefully given,
gratefully given,
Wholly Unexpected,
and
great~fully
Accepted

there a fairy in my garden she visits me at night
i know when she is there her wand it has a light
flying all around flying round the plants
on the edge of my pond she does  her fairy dance

she wears a gown of white a tiara on her head
flies along the borders of my flower bed
just before the dawn she flies in to the sky
waves her fairy wand as she says good bye
