A List of Things I Would Do to James McAvoy

Stragely, that's exactly what I did to Janes McAvoy last time I saw him... ;)

I enjoyed this very much.

Paul

Aww thank you, Paul! It's because I'm getting old, you see. It's been taking me a lot longer to cobble poems together recently, so I thought I'd try a shorter one. Glad you enjoyed!

Ah, Footsie, either I'm having a senior moment, or you've just changed your comment! Give James McAvoy my love!

new MistakenMagic
new Lovely poem
full of images large,
and very descriptive.
Well done all of it though.
Good writer.
stanza I like
I savoured the burn unfurling
in the back of my throat,
and my voice
cracked like the ice as I sang along

I swear I saw a shooting star.
Hope your well.
Missed meeting you "Wheatsheaf".
I must admit don't know poets
like you do, and mentioned.
all the best julie

Thanks, Julie! Sorry I couldn't be there tonight but London is a bit of a trek for me. Hopefully I'll get myself to the next ABCtales event so I can finally meet you all :)

I think I made the same facetious comment last time, Magic. I do like to vary them a bit! Too tired to think of anything original.

I'm a great fan of your work. That's what I meant to say.

Paul

I appreciate your efforts, Paul! And that means a lot coming from a brilliant writer such as yourself ;-)

Short but sweet Magic. Who is James McAvoy? Must google
like the whiskey burn- ha ha

Hi Pia, James McAvoy is this gorgeous creature here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_mcavoy ;-) Thanks for reading!

He used to sit opposite me quite often on the Brighton to London train. He looked quite normal to me. We never spoke!

Ah, I'm jealous, Tony! My uncle sat next to Jude Law on the Eurostar a couple of years ago and never realised it was him.

This is fabulous writing Magic, I loved it. :-)

I had to look up the name just to see who it was. lol

Ah yes... I have the Children of Dune series

Can't say I blame ya ;) Cute kid...

This is a really well written piece Darlin, beautiful :)

Thank you, fatboy! Glad you like it :)

Thanks, Maggie! It seems I've got you all googling James McAvoy - my plan is working! :-P OK, kidding, there's no evil plot, but glad you think he's cute ;-)

Gosh Magic,

how romantic you are. I loved the way you described
that second stanza:-

It was brief, but beautiful. We kissed between words;
our mouths shushed when moulding the roundness of
vowels,
and your lips dangled there like an ellipsis.

Had to look up that word 'ellipsis,' a completely
new word to me.

You never know he might get to read this piece of
writing.

But if he doesn't, it was great reading and thankyou
for sharing.

Jenny.

Haha, thanks, Jenny - I'm too romantic for my own good sometimes ;-) But it does help the poetry!

Hi there, Magic. May I join the party, please?;-)

I agree with fb, 'fabulous writing' and I'll sure drink to that;-)

Of course you can, Tina! Cheers ;-)

Much enjoyed this little one, and the image of you singing along to Nina Simone, half gone on whiskey will stay with me for some time!

Thank you, Shirley! Glad that image will stay with you, but I won't be making a habit out of it ;-)

Love this Magic! x

Thanks for reading, Sunday! :-)

Wonderful. The last line is great. I ended a chapter in a novel once with roughly the same image without quite knowing why but feeling that it worked. There's something about shooting stars that end things off well - something to do with the silence and uncertainty afterwards (I think ... but probably just rambling). Rob

Thanks, Rob! There was definitely something flashing in the sky that night - it was probably an aeroplane or the police helicopter which unnervingly circles our are a sometimes... But I agree that a shooting star is far more poetic ;-)

Can't decide which is more divine - James or this poem. I really enjoyed this, Magic - you don't half write some beautiful poetry ;)

Rachel xx

Aww thank you, Rachel! So glad you think so ;-)

A gorgeous poem for a gorgeous man. I was half expecting this to be a list of some rather naughty things one would like to do with James but of course coming from you it had to be more than that. It's mesmerising and stunning with a sprinkle of naughtiness.

Thank you, Maggy! He is indeed a gorgeous man :-) Hmm maybe when my muse has dried up I'll write that list!

dir Magic the title had been put me off until now, and am glad as it is lovely really no evil plot and lets pretend it was a shooting star anyway :) K

Hey Kahdai! Yes, the title was just a little joke - not actually about the poem's content. Kind of like most of My Chemical Romance's song titles!
