Rain gently falling beyond my window Slate grey sky showing little care For the mood it imposes on the world Angel tears streaking the panes of life Gully washed lives stripped of joy As depression cleanses all of love Hopelessness covers the earth In its death-soaked cloth of pain Obliterating humanities spirit Brilliant flashes of citrine erupt Shattering the charcol stench of winter Goddess of amber's love triumphs Cold aches replaced by warmth Soggy sadness of blight and desolation Cloaked in the Golden fire of love Bleeding sky drips no longer As glorious love eternal encompasses My heart, mind, soul, in saffron bliss Non omnia possumus omnes JP [This message has been edited by JP (edited 07-30-99).] |

Oh my gosh! How beautiful! Freewriting is something I should do more often. If only my freewriting was as good as yours! Please contribute nice poems like this again.  |

I agree...this was beautiful. Too bad many more don't see it like that. |

JP, your mastery of word usage is very impressive. Rain may be a downer but a breath of fresh air is always welcome. |

love's viewed as a panacea by many especially those who don't have any self-love's the most important kind yet also the most difficult to find ------------------ one night at the airport...Childhood Memories...eight short weeks...Music to my Ears...your countenance...just watching tv...hoarse whispers...My One and Only...Tribute to M.J....Feel the need?...serving wench...a little girl...the mistress...stolen hours...Perfection...07-20-69... insomnia...devotion...Master...apart...plain...chat? ... but, enough of this shameless self-promotion  [This message has been edited by elvira (edited 07-31-99).] |
