It's Written in the Stars So exquisite was our precious love I trembled from within Fearing it would blow away With ever changing wind So intangible and fragile Are the wings of heart's own bliss He calmed my fears one starlit night With a gentle kiss And then he took me by the hand And pointed up above And there in splendid radiance Was written all our love For every single tender kiss A single star he placed And spelled our love across the sky In soft poetic grace Our twinkling constellations Filled the galaxy And shown upon the universe For all eternity Elizabeth Santos [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (edited 01-12-2000).] |

Elizabeth, You are so talented I cannot say enough, You have written a huricane and I a simple puff. If you don't mind I'll keep this one, For my heart and mind as a captive sun. Love Sy |

Me likes poems that flow so smoothly not from the tongue but rather from the heart... |

Paul, Poetry does make you float, kind of like a crystal snowflake Thanks, Liz Coroline. I love that word "Exquisite" There is no other that says what it says, and so I use it sparingly in my verses, like the one above Thank you Liz Hoot, Yes, this would be beautiful in the eyes of a romantic Thanks, Liz Whiskey, Seems you describe yourself Thank you Liz Sy, Thank you for your words of praise To your poetic heights I never raise But write my verses in pure elation Thanks to your dear inspiration Liz Sally, You are so kind. Thanks Liz Mike, From the heart come the sweetest songs Thank you Liz |

Easy to read and flowing so well The poem took me into its spell Thank you , very nice The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

What a wonderful poem Elizabeth. It has set examples to me that there could be "Happy Poems", somehow, I just can't get those happy feelings out. But with your poem, I am sure going to try. Thank you for the encouragement. Good Luck to you, Baby Blue |
