It was near time for dark skies when Susan heard a noise at the window. It was a crow with a message in its beak! She heard Joe say he would contact her, but never did she expect a bird in flight! Apparently Joe would begin by a brief face to face encounter and then smartly give her the “moon and stars treatment” to impress her. Susan was excited, thought no regret, wanting to know more about Joe and his magical talents.

He had been guilty of being a liar, pretending a spell he cast over the fine Gabriel was only in her mind and not lit by his machinations. Gabrielle was inclined to believe many handsome men, and find the tolls they took on her were her own fault. The men who exacted these so-called spells merely sighed in contentment.

1984 I had three teenagers and music filled our lives. My daughter fell for Prince with this song. He was controversial at the time but grew to be one of the most famous songwriters and performers. Unfortunately, he died at the early age of 57 – (born this day in June 1958);from an overdose of drugs. This is not an unusual sad story. There is some nudity in the video.

When Doves Cry – Song by Prince ‧ 1984

OverviewLyrics

Dig if you will the picture
Of you and I engaged in a kiss
The sweat of your body covers me
Can you my darling
Can you picture this?

Dream, if you can, a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat
The heat between me and you

How can you just leave me standing
Alone in a world that’s so cold? (So cold)
Maybe I’m just too demanding
Maybe I’m just like my father, too bold
Maybe you’re just like my mother
She’s never satisfied (she’s never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like 
When doves cry

Touch if you will my stomach
Feel how it trembles inside
You’ve got the butterflies all tied up
Don’t make me chase you
Even doves have pride

How could you just leave me standing
Alone in a world so cold? (World so cold)
Maybe I’m just too demanding
Maybe I’m just like my father, too bold
Maybe you’re just like my mother
She’s never satisfied (she’s never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like 
When doves cry

How can you just leave me standing
Alone in a world that’s so cold? (A world that’s so cold)
Maybe I’m just too demanding (maybe, maybe I’m like my father)
Maybe I’m just like my father too bold (you know he’s too bold)
Maybe you’re just like my mother (maybe you’re just like my mother)
She’s never satisfied (she’s never, never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other? (Why do we scream, why)
This is what it sounds like 
When doves cry
When doves cry (doves cry, doves cry)
When doves cry (doves cry, doves cry)

Don’t cry (don’t cry)

Sammiscribbles Weekend Writing Prompt

I think it’s too old school
Using this ancient tool
Maybe thinking it’s cool
But I think they’re a fool
Abacus sliding beads
Adding or subtracting needs
A brain that can memorize
Beads you see with calculating eyes
Are different colors used to advise
Is this a really useful device?
