The beauty of Lisa and Nina
The incomparable Lisa has written such a tender and poignant piece, Kiss Me
And I often find when reading her lovely words that I think of the incomparable “Nina Simone”
Today Kiss Me took me to Wild is the Wind
Love me love me love me
Say you do
Let me fly away
with you
For my love is like
the wind
And wild is the wind
Give me more
than one caress
Satisfy this
hungriness
Let the wind
blow through your heart
For wild is the wind
You…
touch me…
I hear the sound
of mandolins
You…
kiss me…
With your kiss
my life begins
You’re spring to me
All things
to me
Don’t you know you’re
life itself
Like a leaf clings
to a tree
Oh my darling,
cling to me
For we’re creatures
of the wind
And wild is the wind
So wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
Wild is the wind

Lovely Lisa – there is something in you that so often reminds me of Nina
And it is that much more a joyous association because you love Nina too :D
Maybe it is all kinds of kudos and karma?
You have a great weekend – we’ll talk soon xoxo

Lovely Debbie!

Hello Cass – just as Lisa’s writing often reminds me of NIna, I’ve been thinking of who others in the bubble often make me think of. And for you, I often end up at Linkin Park, one of my favourite bands. Perhaps not as delicious as Nina, but I might have to write a journal on this for a few people I suspect. About five people immediately come to mind where my musical synapses are triggered by poetry or art…More to follow sweet Cass xoxo

Nina and Lisa do have an essence that transcends time me thinks….I feel Lisa’s words will stand the test of time… Really so wonderful to read your thoughts here about two very obvious creative women.
Some people just shine ….. shining words here…xxx
