The challenge was to go to the 12th form the top in open 31,,,andwrite a poem inspired by that poem....The twelth from the top for me was Dormant Buds,,,by Ice When? When will it happen? Asks the preeteen gazing into the mirror looking for the first blossom. When will it happen? Asks the young mother watching over her child looking for the first step. When will it happen? Asks the lonely young woman tracing her finger looking always for the band of gold. When will it happen? Asks the man pacing the hospital floor looking at his watch, ticks between contractions. When will it happen? Asks the fragile young bud wrapped in winters coat looking for Mother Natures sign. As the Spring follows the snow,,,,, it will happen,,,when it is time I wish all could find the true happiness I have found,,in the eyes of Mike [This message has been edited by Michelle_loves_Mike (01-29-2004 07:31 AM).] |

I think this one needs a bump. I haven't read Ice's poem, but I like yours. It's always that question "when will it happen", lucky though we don't know everything on forehand. Although it would be nice if they could tell me when I will win the 20 million  Very nice poem Michelle Titia Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |

Michelle, Darlin... If you keep writing this good, I'm going to get a complex, and a severe case of self-doubt,and I'm going to stop writing. Even without the challenge, this is the best I have seen from you. Great Job. Cause in my dreams it's always there |
