The years pass by uncounted but the minutes I know by name each second since I’ve loved you no measurement is the same The time it took to make a star means naught to me you see for in that star I find the love that I wish you had for me We’ve subdued the jungle beasts but my heart will not be tamed I’ll not hold back a nanosecond and thus said, I feel ashamed This love took not a moment to find a home within my heart I do not know when it will end nor am I sure when it did start The clock held within my heart doesn’t count time in normal space it’s measured in the times I’m held within your loving embrace [This message has been edited by Poet deVine (edited 08-11-2000).] |

Keeping the past as a time-piece enslaves those who would keep it wound each named minute will never cease until in loves arms we are found You always put such feeling in your poems. Wonderful as always. jamie |

Nice writing deVine. The end was just perfect. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

"The years pass by uncounted but the minutes I know by name each second since I've loved you no measurement is the same" Great lines and an equally great poem, my friend. Excellent! Michael |

Oooooh! I like this one much I do! What a love you describe! But a one sided one sucks! The stars shall shine at night Forever they shall be Someday you will find your love Just trust me, you shall see Don't make sense does it? Oh well! In the head and down on (paper?)  |

As some indication of how I feel about this poem - JMHO - it belongs in a published anthology at the very least, and more than that- like growing tendrils it grabbed my heart |

Now this is a sweet love beyond reproach. You have penned a preface to the worlds manual of pure love for the eternal at heart. Loved it in style and flow. Superb. |

Beautiful poem and timeless in it's ability to reach out and grab you. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

When Cupid's arrow dipped in deep love penetrates the heart it is so darn hard to get it back out...remarkable portrayal of the depth of love that can hold one forever or so it seems...great work! |

Ms. Poet, your poem is lovely...and its theme rather reminds me of "Time In a Bottle." ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

I admire anyone who can get "nanosecond" into a poem! LOL! I love to see this side of you, deVine one.  |

I agree, Mike. Good thing Ms. DeVine ain't country to the core, elsewise it'd be nannersekens. DeVine One, I gotta say I really enjoyed your definition of Time. Would that I could measure intervals that way. Alicat |
