i carry your heart with me

it took me quite a while to appreciate ee cummings.....the strange vocabulary made of punctuation, the odd meter, the abstractness of it all.....but in him was one of the most beautiful love poems i have ever read.  here it is.  if this doesn't want to make you give your entire self to your beloved, i can't say what will....

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in

my heart) i am never without it (anywhere

i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done

by only me is your doing, my darling)

                                      i fear

no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want

no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)

and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows

higher than a soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)

Chondromalacia...not so sexy.

I found out why my knee has been driving me nuts.  Chondromalacia.  And patello-femoral syndrome.  In a nutshell, my knee is overstressed because of the angle between my hip & knee and the cartilage behind my kneecap is paying the price.  Good news, though.  No Surgery! Yay!  But, apparently, I have no VMO (one of the quad muscles).  Plies in 5th position, here I come.  It's just like ballet when I was little.

If I get my scanner working, I'll show you my MRI.

Rainy days are sexy!

Think about it for a minute......you snuggle by the fire for a bit, then one thing leads to another, and then voila! Sexiness.

Enjoy your rainy days!

Happy Birthday to Me!

Today seems like as good a day as any to start my new blog. I'm 36 now. Too bad I feel perpetually 22! : )

I find it funny (ironic & interesting; not ha-ha) that I never advertised boudoir photography. Yet I seem to have fallen into it, and it's a lot of fun. I get to show off to women just how gorgeous and sexy they are, create great photographic images, and make new friends along the way. I've always loved pin-up girls and pin-up girl style: feminine, flirty, self-confident, teasing, playful. Big time sexy! Bettie Page, Bettie Davis, Bettie Rubble (even if she was only a cartoon) all perfected this. They were all bold and forward and unapologetic about their beauty and sexuality, so I've named my sessions after them.

So Be Bold! Be Sexy! Be a Bettie!
