CirclingLook through my shadows of dim frosted fright See through my wardrobe bereft of love's light Know that you know me in spite of my heart You know that you have from the start. Walk near the moments of mellower moons Glimpse the first glowing of late afternoon Artfully share how our storm's raging force has brought to us treasured discourse. Release me to soar through the wind driven rain Stronger and fuller and fertile again Now fly with me, circling and sweeping the sea Yes, this is what loving can be.  Claire |

Claire- I love anything that encompasses the circle or the circling event. This was simply lyrical. What a talent you have shared with us all. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

This was wonderfully and wisely written, and your choice of meter complimented the content to perfection. Thank you, Claire, for brightening my morning with this. --Kess Full fathom five thy father lies, Of his bones are coral made, Those are pearls that were his eyes; Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange... --William Shakespeare, from The Tempest |

Not sappy at all! It's what romantics live for <*\\\>< When you can't make up your mind Which way is right for you, Stop and softly ask yourself, What Would Jesus Do? |

Thank you, everyone, for reading and letting me know what you think. This poem actually kind of wrote itself, as does most of my work. I'm glad you've enjoyed it! Claire |

Clair, If your poems just write themselves, then please pass my comments on. Tell them that they write themselves so beautifully. Parker |
