Choose from Any I am one of many A character of line Sometimes I am dull and flat Passion, unrefined… Then a poet takes a pen And whips me a desire That is when I in bend Begin to light the fire I become a syllable, Then lent an adjective I begin a storied verse Then begin to live For I am of the alphabet Alone, I am not much But if you shall give me wing Then a heart I’ll touch Start with any language And scribble me astray For if left on whitest page I shall surely stay Let your ink leak liquid Let your verses flow Take my many characters Allow your heart to show Imagination! Take over, From mountain peak to vale Let the words ring louder Give the billows sail! Start each wondrous day anew Share with every one your view Spread the shimmering drop of dew Share emphatic, “I love you” For I am of the alphabet Alone, I am not much But if you shall give me wing Then a heart you’ll touch ©Karilea Rilling Jungel 3 March 2002 |

And when you give it wing It flys so very high Each poem I read of yours Ends with a sigh ~  ~* If I made you "feel" something today, I have done my job, and I smile *~ [This message has been edited by Mysteria (03-03-2002 11:40 AM).] |

You, my friend, are never 'dull and flat' - how one can write such beauty about something like the alphabet is beyond me...still, and always, learning from you... jwesley |

Ooohhhhhhh...this is wonderful, sweet friend, I enjoy this so very much, your words always shine with sentiments of emotion and the magic of the alphabet! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is breathtaking! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karilea, thank you for sharing!   May love and light always shine upon you!

Sunshine! This is awesome! There is a bit of Jewish folklore that says God called the world into being by reciting the (Hebrew alef-bet) alphabet. We call words into being by putting the letters together and you put them together beautifully. You have definitely honored the sacredness of your creative gift. May God continue to bless you so richly! Bridget |
