I am a soldier of love who seeks an adventerous life in whatever circumstances that chance offers in love and strife I am a soldier whose love is stronger than the wildest wind or rain and it will live when life itself appears to be in vain Day by day I march in love trying not to skip a beat you're the one I will always love you make me feel complete Above the roar and chaos against the raging sea and after all the sands of time have joined eternity This soldiers love is more enduring than the ever faithful friend and far beyond my fondest hopes that touch a rainbows end and though the universe may burn and melt away the sky this soldiers love will be the same and it will never die Just be glad I'm not your child! *evil grin* |

Hi Echo! Just read your poem and I really love it! It describes perfectly how I´d like to feel, being my own soldier not needing any rescue ... Thanks for this one  (It seems I can´t get those smileys right!) [This message has been edited by Björn (edited 02-09-2000).] |

This is cool Echo....challenge was met well!! So did you leave CA?? Take Care Bridgette Creation of woman from the rib of Man: She was not made from his head to top him; nor out of his feet to be trampled upon by him; but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected, and near his heart to be loved." |

Echo, nice to see you. You're a beautiful girl, hope things are going well for you! I love this poem. I especially like the way you paint a picture of the chaotic nature of life and the soldier's steadfast love through it all. "though the universe may burn and melt away the sky"--Great phrases in here!< !signature--> It matters not how strait the gate; How charged with punishments the scroll; I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. --W.E. Henley [This message has been edited by Tara Simms (edited 02-09-2000).] |
