The sharing of a spirit is made from sky and trees within the glade but also born of time itself across the nape that whispers all things touching not just the bones and skin but filling a place deep within Its fragile strength is held at cost of a minute's piece of freedom lost To give so much of yourself this way is more than I love you can ever say [This message has been edited by Martie (10-11-2003 07:21 PM).] |

May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

Martie When I read your poetry, I look for it...and am never disapointed. "it" is always there Though sometimes hidden in metaphor, but always "it" is there..The "it" I speak of is the gift you have of connecting all human situations directly to the natural world...Thank you for the "it" in this poem, I enjoyed readin "it".....ice |

Your spirit can be compared to a fire that never goes out. An eternal flame seems a bit much, but it's so like you. Hugs Martie girl~ |

To give so much of yourself this way is more than I love you can ever say Yes. *S* Those words are often spoken even more beautifully when lips are silent and hearts say everything. Excellent write! [This message has been edited by suthern (10-12-2003 05:29 PM).] |

This is pure beauty, Martie. I'd forgotten how much I loved to read your words. I especially loved "across the nape that whispers all things touching not just the bones and skin but filling a place deep within" You are a genius.  ~*Krista Lee Knutson*~ |
