There are answers up there, I thought as I gazed at the sky. I thought of all my questions, As a falling star caught my eye. I sighed and thought of you, And clouds formed overhead, As questions with no answers, tramped inside my head. All I want is clear night skies, A time to rest my mind. All I want is happiness, But this I cannot find. The big dipper comes into view, scooping out these thoughts, Spreading them across the sky, Making me feel lost. In this horizon of troubles, I have stumbled too long, Now I must sift through the stars, And find out what is wrong, Until the clouds clear away, And my heart reflects the moon, Serene, calm and shining bright, Singing a pristine tune. |

Now I must sift through the stars, And find out what is wrong, Until the clouds clear away, And my heart reflects the moon, very nice lines here... I enjoyed!!! |

Your beautiful night sky seems a very happy place to be. Even if troubled, it seems serene. Very well written! Sincerely, Regina [This message has been edited by rwood (edited 08-02-2001).] |

I love your sky... Remember too, though, that the answers are inside the vistas of you... -MVS "When you tell the Truth, you never have to remember what you just said." |

Know what you mean...was just thinking to myself a few ago why am I not happy...sometimes I get what I want and I'm still not happy...because my heart always has new demands and needs...happiness is elusive....sometimes I am happy...James |

In this horizon of troubles, I have stumbled too long, Now I must sift through the stars, And find out what is wrong, Until the clouds clear away, And my heart reflects the moon, Serene, calm and shining bright, Singing a pristine tune. ============================== This is wonderful writing... your employ of imagery and metaphor kept in theme with the celestial visions you painted the emotions with. very well done SK...beautiful, bittersweet poem. jm slow burn ... |

Mark ~ wise words...I do know I must look inside myself...I just have a lot of trouble doing that sometimes  I'd rather look at other people! Thank you for your comments...you can visit my sky anytime! James ~ yes...I feel like that at times too...maybe we're just afraid to be happy? Thanks for taking time to ponder with me VAS ~ thank you very much that is a great compliment!Melissa ~ well appreciated! thanks for stopping by.Marge ~ and what a lovely response you've even got little twinkling stars to make it Marge-special.
