" I asked the river for a sign how long is love supposed to shine you and I, we hurt together, hurt alone don't you sometimes wish your heart was made of stone. " Cher ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I spoke to her again yesterday there where water meets stone and willow branches bend stretching fingers dipping down swirling on edges; dripping ripples ever growing, starting small and she, tilts head to sky, questions moonlight and in reply she speaks soft of love how in it's own time it comes and it goes and how we can consider it a blessing to know those times that it visits lest we turn to stone. |

Hyaunt, thank you for stopping by. James, thanks, I appreciate that. Lady L, thanks. I enjoy trying new things, I'm always trying to learn and grow, and find that if I try to write in just one style or pattern for too long that it is too stifling and limiting to the creative processes that run through this mind of mine. Every now and then it is nice to step out of the "comfort zone" as I so often call it.  Thanks hon,  |

Me thinks that stone is not a very good outergarment, huh? Nicely done, lots of beautiful words. |

a thoughtful, emotive and most fine ‘write’! I am especially fond of: “where water meets stone and willow branches bend stretching fingers” AND: “love how in it's own time it comes and it goes and how we can consider it a blessing to know those times that it visits lest we turn to stone.” serious applause!! |

This particular poem shows a delightful growth in how to bend words and match visions, honey. Well done! |
