Fall, souls, like crystal snowflakes Each unique yet very well Blanket the earth alone alike From great length just who can tell She fell to the earth one day To me she was fair and clean Not like the dirty snowflakes Throughout the field were seen She was so fair yet so divine Gently I touched her in my hand And I could see inside her soul To the beauty that shared the land Holding her close the wind it ebbed Every facet of her was clear Melting between my fingers lost Shed by God, He keeps her near [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (edited 01-06-2000).] |

Walt...this is wonderful. I'm still scratching around trying to find the words to meet this challenge and you have done so beautifully It's not the love you fear, but the fall from the height~Edwin McCain |

Well done here Sir Walt... Perhaps it is the way I read it but it seems rather sad... as if the narrator had but a small time with this gift of Gods'. Still, very beautiful. I bow to you and yours. |

Oh Walt....I too felt sad like Andrew Scott said.... As someone said though....better to have held her and lost her, than never to have held her at all.....I think there's a country song along that line. Fabulous story you shared in this. I smile at you... ** I'm reaching for the brightest star I've ever seen - knock my ladder out from under me, and you'll wish you hadn't !! -pFF ** Here's to 2000! |

Very touching, I enjoyed this! *Krista Knutson* ~*Like a lion, without fear of the howling pack, Like a gust of wind, ne'er trapped in a snare, Like a lotus blossom, ne'er sprinkled by water, Let me, like a unicorn, in solitude roam.*~ Hymn Of Buddha |

Throughly enjoyed this Walt! Jennifer Lee Love is an attempt at penetrating another being,But it can only succeed if the surrender is mutual. |
