Sometimes, Always, Never (I make a couple 'form' changes midstream - please forgive me  )We meet We come together In venues large and small Feelings Soft and tender Sometimes a stormy squall We meet We come together A deux or at a party The feeling Warm and loving Sometimes sweet, sometimes hearty Never When I'm with you Am I bored or out of sorts Always When I'm with you The lifting you transports Always When I'm with you I'm happy taking part Always When I feel you Approach I want to park We could talk of poetry Or of wishing to be free Our talk could be of kids Or just the meaning of ‘we’ Anywhere The talk could take us So I think that none could break us Whether we cry our sobs or laugh For we’re strong as any staff ‘Cause with you the talk's exciting And it’s always so inviting The words are never stalled Just with you I'm so enthralled Nothing you do makes me appalled So let us keep on meeting So pleasing is your greeting With friendliest intentions If feelings pass the mention We'll welcome the ascension We both relish the attention This is how I'll greet A kiss, a hug, so sweet That we'll always meet It will ever be a treat Some day sometime we'll know The seeds that we do sow We can't help but see it grow You know I won't say whoa I think I want to be your beau Always When we do the best that we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another. ~ Helen Keller ~ [This message has been edited by Wilfred Yeats (edited 12-19-2000).] |

Ah, change is good...this is good...you're good! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Bill--A sweetly poetic description of a loving relationship, I think. |

I liked it, the change of form doesn't detract, evolution within a poem can be good for the expression. Gloom |

I loved the intimacy of this one Bill. I like how you kept it so intense all the way through and the change of form sure doesn't detract it only adds to your individuality, which as we all know is what makes a poet's independent thinking flourish...well done!! and happy holidays to you too...ethome |

Ms Santos I may blunder still occasionally - Our pastor nominated me "Lay Leader" then while away on some occasions he gave me the pulpit (3 times!) as you know I speak my mind (nuff said) Thanks Pepper - Thank you |
