From where I look, I see the thaw and on the frozen floor the sun upon the glowing crust is glistening wet and pure. Upon the surface of rolling hills the glossy snowdrifts ride; there is no place or living thrill like greenwoods sprouting eyes. A mild scent is on the air; I lift my head and breathe out of the sky I seem to hear a calling on the breeze. The sound of God and life and wild the sound of earth that grows out of the wind that whispers by the sound of trees that moan. I know now why it is I care; I bend my head and pray; I cannot drive them from my heart these teardrops that I make. Celtrue2000@E3B1G9 |

Thank you Martie I appreciate your comments. I have had a heavy workload lately so I have'nt been able to spend the time I would like around the forum. But I will be looking for you and all the others as soon as I can. Sincerly E. Lewis True |

Your poem took me on a quick journey away from work, home, kids and carpools to someplace beautiful and peaceful. Thank you. I will save it for the next time I need a "vacation" |
