I Am Writing This For You


Fruit of my Thoughts


It's late in the evening and once again, alone with my thoughts, my thoughts about you. Ah my imagination takes me to places, I dare come to fruition. I go to the kitchen get a refill of lemonade, yeah it quenches my thirst, temporarily - but not of you. Yeah, I'm talking to you. I also notice a pint of strawberries and it's like hmmmm , I think I'll have a few of these for a lovely snack. Looking at the beauty of the berries the color so vibrant, so fresh, so succulent , so tempting, like you. I picked the biggest ones, about 4 or 5, hey, what can I say, I'm hungry for you... are you still here? Ha,ha. So I set these plump berries aside to give them a little wash. My hands under the water I'm feeling each berry's light fuzzy seeds caressing it with my fingers. Yeah, I'm thinking about. Patting them dry on the plate I head to the couch. I'm watching a Sci-Fi movie and why not? My thoughts of you are right now are, out of this world. I want this to be special. Oh my ! I know how to imagine with Special effects ... Whew! It's getting warm in here! Anyway,

the movie villain is quite intense in kidnapping his captors to another planet. So much action going got me to grab one those lovely berries. I took a glance of admiration to its red full-figured heart shape and took a well deserve bite. This one was full of juice, as I gently bit down on the berry's flesh . I had to catch a drop trying to run from the corner of my mouth. Hmmm. And as I paced my chew to a slow stop. I was just wondering if you felt that. Cause, I was just thinking about you with a smirk on my face. Oh yes, I guess I'll have to finish what I've started, huh, eating the rest of these big beautiful strawberries... hmmm so good! And of course, my thoughts of you.

In memory of a Great Dame, Elizabeth Taylor

I am sorry to hear of the passing of Hollywood's Cleopatra... The beautiful Elizabeth Taylor.
For those who are not familiar with her work, Elizabeth has been in the film industry since
a small child. Most prominent "National Velvet" with Mickey Rooney.
When I was a child and asked my parents about Elizabeth Taylor...
My mother would say....She is beautiful, she has violet color eyes, while my father would say, she turned out
to be a real tough cookie in films.
While Elizabeth was well known for her many marriages... I believe 7 but I could be wrong.
Twice with Richard Burton.
All of her films are memorable and she has had a spectacular career, no doubt.

I am a film buff. My recommendations on Elizabeth Taylor Films are as followed:

Lassie Come Home - with Roddy McDowall
National velvet - with Mickey Rooney
Father of the bride - Spencer Tracy
A place in the Sun - Montgomery Cliff
Giant -  Rock Hudson, James Dean
The last time I saw Paris - Van Johnson
Cat on a hot tin Roof - Paul Newman
Suddenly, Last Summer - Katharine Hepburn, Montgomery Cliff, Lawrence Harvey
Butterfield 8 - Lawrence Harvey, Eddie Fisher
Cleopatra - Richard Burton, Rex Harrison
Who's afraid of Virginia Woolf - Richard Burton

All of her films are wonderful. But the above I do recommend for those not familiar with her.
My parents watched her grow up on films and said...Anything Elizabeth does, is worth watching. Just because she's
beautiful, don't take that for granted - she has done a wide range of roles and has paid her dues many times over.

Along with being a great actress, Elizabeth was an activist for Aids standing by her friend Rock Hudson.
She has worked with the best in the film industry.
My final words:
I will miss you Elizabeth Taylor. Thank you so much for being in our lifetime.
You will always remain the most Spectacular Actress way after many of your friends
and beloved friends have passed.
You are bigger than CinemaScope!
You Rock, Babes.
