Do not grieve for lost love it was false to the test yet study the lesson and learn of it's secrets for it will come again and yet again to you prepare well for the trial be master of it's text for it is surely thus you are doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past with redundant fortune take heed of the warning don armor of wisdom the sword of knowledge shall protect you from the false prophet of devious affection the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Ah, your eyes are open to what you don't want. Now time for what you truly deserve, a wonderful love to cherish, and be cherished in return! Great writing! Ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |

ah...lessons learned, we just not need to heed the surface lessons preceived, also the ones hidden under the layers of hurt...and to be open to a second chance. -the Lady smiles |

Unless we learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it--and you sound as though you're determined to learn from history. Experience, I think, is a very hard teacher, but if we learn the lessons well, we can gain the world. Great poem and a wonderful read. "If you can't annoy somebody, there's little point in writing." --Kingsley Amis |
