But in the meantime, we're enjoying the view!

I might have to stand there with you! Loved this!

That's so true. Some folks will never know us no matter how close they think they are. Loved this.

Have a fabulous day. ☺

Just something about being buck naked...

July 9, 2013 at 4:47 PM

Ah yes. Being physically naked seems less naked than to be emotionally or spiritually seen. Well done!

I love the way you write...prose or poetry. I like the way your mind works. Oma Linda

what is it that is poking out?
smiles. ha.
yes it takes much more than nudity to really know someone...something high school boys dont learn til later in life...ha

Like the refrain ~ There is a difference to being naked and revealing one's soul ~

July 9, 2013 at 6:31 PM

Oh my I wouldn't want to stand buck naked for I would scare them lol! Well put though . Have a good day !

Never, ever give all of self away . . . buck naked reveals flesh, not soul . . .

Now that was an interesting piece, Gail.
Hope your Wednesday is a good one. :-)

Well they will probably see my soul ... before seeing me buck naked . lol
Profound prose in your writing.

July 9, 2013 at 10:50 PM

a cool pic...and the soul is always invisible for the eyes, right...? just visible for the heart..

I loved the defiance of this poem, it is my anthem too. What you see... there is so much more to me that you will never know!

July 9, 2013 at 11:06 PM

Ha! I really like this.

July 9, 2013 at 11:57 PM

It's always good to hold a little back, isn't it?

(And in my case, the buck naked thing ain't what it used to be...)

i have not seen a crawdad like this one since i was 12 years old... and if you saw ME buck naked you would not even think about the SOUL part...

July 10, 2013 at 7:24 AM

This is really a good one. I like this one very much.

July 10, 2013 at 12:08 PM

"Defiance"--such a great summary! I love this poem. It shows such personal integrity.

July 10, 2013 at 12:45 PM

Very good! Although who wants to see your soul when we can see your who-ha?

JUST KIDDING!!! ;)

July 10, 2013 at 1:21 PM

Haha, love that first comment!
That is an amazing little creature.

So, this is a crawdad - OK - neat - looks like a little lobster to me. I expect you eat them the same and cook same. I have seen people catch them and eat them on internet. Are these in your creek and do you catch them.
Buck Naked maybe, but one still does not know me either :) Nicely done

July 10, 2013 at 1:58 PM

It is hot here too :)

July 11, 2013 at 1:23 PM

Nicely done! Won't be seeing me buck naked...lol!
