They Flow they flow like a river on a mossy bed bring out the clear to my muddy head words calmly soothe me when the storms rage I am never lonely in retrace of their page there is a voice of many a soft whisper of one the world’s string of silence by them is slowly undone solid solder joined to mend the weak parts and there is more than a time or two bent my heart whether in laughter or the taste of another's tears the joys in our lives balanced by our fears and I shall walk by their river words my companion as I stroll eternally the poets flow the liquid language of our soul "I'm so hard to handle I'm selfish and I'm sad." — Joni Mitchell |

Helen, This is beautiful. Yes, writing poetry has always been a calming force in my life too. Better than therapy and cheaper too. Ida |

and there is more than a time or two bent my heart whether in laughter or the taste of another's tears the joys in our lives balanced by our fears and I shall walk by their river words my companion as I stroll eternally the poets flow the liquid language of our soul This is so very lovely... The last two lines really are the reason for it all, aren't they? *S* From one great lady, inspired by another... you both make me grateful for Ron and these blue pages. *S* Into my library this goes... *S* |

I shall walk by their river words my companion as I stroll eternally the poets flow the liquid language of our soul You know Helen, there is not a time I go by water flowing that I don't think of JM? Not once. She had captured the soul of the flow, and somehow now I feel that flowing through me as I walk by. I can see her little Keds in my head each time. You do the Gemini Girls justice. You are a doll! |

This is a very special gift and a gentle rendering of a true poets heart. That would be you, slick lady. |
