Hidden [Terza Rima] Somewhere, hidden deep in blackest archive A treasured chest of words in blessed blend Somewhere, hidden deep, where they, alive, Comforting with truth, mayhap love, portend Where I shall win my rest and nightly ease, Neither nightmare nor concern shall contend Whereby this heart be held lone in love’s seize Where this mind be bent in blessed relief Where worries art cast to far away breeze I pray that the dark skies shall not be brief But long bathe in your words among the sheets Allowing salt soak of past tears base grief Below, Crier sings as he walks the streets Calling out that all is well, all is well My weep a silent, lone, and somber beat Somewhere, hidden deep, is my love’s sweet swell Somewhere, hidden deep, peels my mourning bell ~*~ Post note: I first wrote this for my 30,000th post. I see that I've now passed 63,000. Wow. Where has the time gone? I would once again like to thank all of you for allowing Passions to be a Poet's Home of Choice But especially, a thank you to Ron, the Administrators, Senior Moderators and Deputy Moderators, for all that you do... Write On, and Enjoy all that is yet to be... |

More than a memorable milestone, Sunshine, but a personal triumph in the timeless art of poetry. These verses held me rapt, word for word and line for line, unto the sobering conclusion---oh, that bell that tolls for all! Let me be ever more mindful of the gift of time, and all that is yet to be. art |

You are so elequent in your longing for the closeness of love. I am not much of a poet so I had to look up what type of poem this is and am amazed that you can word it so well in this format. That's what happens when one is an old story teller and song writer but I surely appreciate the wonderful talent so many here have shown in so many poetic styles. That's wonderful that you have held to such a love for writing and for others with so many posts here at Passions. May you post several million more! Eric |

I could have sworn I had replied to this. I went through the responses twice to check, but it seems I didn't. Anyway, it is very beautiful. When you find that treasure chest, you should search in it for the poetry of Sunshine! It will bring you all the comfort you need. Owl |

As always your Poetry is uplifting and sooo expressive. I want to say " I got Sunshine on a cloudy day........... The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |
