Somewhere a mother holds a child gently to her breast, Somewhere two lovers stroll, hands clasped, in contented unity, Somewhere, in stubborn silhouette, a man stands, tall and proud, true to his belief, Somewhere a man weeps, cloaked in his pain without release, Head bowed, he whispers to the night, a lament echoed by the wind, For all that I should have thought and did not, For all that I should have said and did not, For all that I should have done and did not, Forgive me my weakness in times of trial, and for those yet to come, For I am as a child lost in a great multitude, Frightened, uncertain, alone, Yearning for the light that will lead me home. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Beautiful, pegasus. This is a place perhaps everyone needs to come to at some time. Thanks for giving me something to think about. To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

Pegasus; Avery beautiful and insightful poem. It is only when we finally find the courage to look within, and face our own truth that we finally see the light, The light then shines on all that is good within us and we learn to finally love who we are. le coeur a ses raisons que la raison ne con-nait point....the heart has its reasons that reason knows nothing of.. |

Well I dont know what to say(in a good way of course). It was powerful tho  Sometimes you have to let go and move on, But never let go of the memories. |

thank you my friends.. special note to Maria..haven't you ever wished you had thought or said or done something differently that would have made a big difference in your life, but because of your own inperfection, was unable to? the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |
