 Ruminations Youth basked my hours in sultry summer savor melting me in ice cream flavor and dandelion shine Adolescence masked my hours in silkiness and lace bringing me face to face with questions, only mine Adulthood tasked my hours in the hurry up to wait that queries may equate through the hurriedness of time Maturity now casks my hours mellow is the flavor left in summer’s savor as the grape turns on the vine [This message has been edited by Sunshine (07-06-2002 03:53 PM).] |

How it is for each of us as we are born into the world of trnquility....living through all of the changes, demands.. all of the moments that bombard us and make us into that grape....just right for the picking, the savoring of a fine wine properly aged... That I might drink of finest wine grown from a vine of purest stalk To sip and savor what is but fine and whisper softly our share of talk. |

Kari hi there Thank goodness mum had Paul’s computer she could fall back on, I don’t know how she would have managed without it. Maybe now she will treat it a little better when it returns to her desk. Wonderful writing I’m so glad I got the opportunity to reply to you, you are one of my favourite writers and I always enjoy your writing, and this is exceptional, full of such beauty and depth. As always Krissy  And while thy willing soul transpiers |

First, I would like to thank Gentle Spirit for bringing this back up...what a wonderful surprise it was to see so many sharing a few thoughts with me... Magnus, one of the finest compliments I can think of is to find prose in return...thank you so much! Mysteria, you can say anything you wish, anytime you want...may your voice never know the sound of silence... Enchantress, to be deemed a Keeper is another one of the best compliments I can think of...thank you! Kris, so, you've found the library key, have you? Isn't that a tremendous little perk to Passions? Thank you! Martie, you write so many Keepers, it's hard to keep track of them all...thank you for the IW.... Sy? That may be the first poem I've heard of that has "tanned someone's hide" ...  Thank you, Sy....Chills are fun in the summertime, aren't they, Lady C....thank you so much! Tier, a magnificent from you is a day with sunshine! Thank you! Donna, two thank yous...the first for the kind remark, the second for bringing this back for sharing...you are too kind! Thank you, Noah! Krissy, for Christmas, I think Santa should bless all of Mushy's children with computers, what do you think? Thank you, dear! Bridget, your shortest comments make me smile! I know what you're thinking! Paul, the soul/sole purpose of writing is to make people enjoy what they read...thank you! Mycafe, you're turning into a Keeper yourself! Thank you! Devina, a read from you has made my day! Thank you! Toe, my man, you do have a way with words...now that I have stopped blushing, I've come 'round to say, thanks for the read. You take care of that suthern lady, y'hear? suthern, that's me...always leaving messages...hopefully, always leaving the kind that lifts a spirit or two, y'know? You take care of Toe now.... DS, just a little thoughtful party to help the summer not slip by so fast, you know? You know! Thank you! |
