Tender is the Night



where have you gone
does it dawn
that it will be soon

my longing without you
 with an empty bottle
craving holding tight
the tender night
yearning to forget
and not to miss your touch

moist lips
mingled breaths
warming warmth

it will as quickly vanish
as the night

I love this photograph. It feels to me as if one were standing outside the barred gate to Eden -- or the equivalent -- but unable to enter.

The photograph is out of this world. Now you must put in adjectives and adverbs in your text which i can then use to shower praise.
Also pleeeeze tell if you were in a light enough state of mind to imitate Tony Benett when the song was being inserted in the post or before or after. You must have because i hear your voice instead of his, only it reached me a few hours late because of the distance.

Waiting mostest eagerly to know about the most appropriate photo. Which came first? The name or the image?

First, Fitzgerald wrote the book in 1934; the movie, directed by Henry King, was made in 1962, when I saw it. I took this picture in 1973, and sang in the voice of Tony Bennett (who sang in 1962) today, to confuse you and others who have little idea (?) about the quality of my voice. Now you will know what came first and what after. Thank you for loving everything about this picture, and making such an eloquent statement.

Tender words written so tenderly in tender night.

I like the picture, too.
