GREAT !!!
ASTONISHING !!!

and thats not only because it's you who is reading it :D

the most beautiful poem is in beauty may I walk

I love it.
Your repeating of the "may I walk" is so pushing and so impressive, I couldn't get it of my mind the whole day :D

I hope you will make more of these :)

How about reading some of your shorter story's ?? *asks shyly*

*eeeep* *blushes*

In beauty may I walk is one of my all time favorites. I love the rhythm and the repetition.

Maybe I'll record more. :D Which short story would you like to hear? I don't know if I can record something that long, but I can always ask my hubby and see if he has the time to help me.

*loves you too*
