wishes three the stars are all who see as I sit knees to chest soft shirt pulled over tucked under toes to stay the chill for just a few moments more and I wonder where you are tonight and I wait for you and I wait for morn and any more I wonder just what it is I am waiting for despite my prayers and wishes three you do not appear magically or otherwise any more than morning’s light brings something other than the same old missing you shuffle to the kitchen for coffee that I drink while I wait and I wonder what the day will hold and what it is I am waiting for and just before daylights duties take me from my missing you haven I close my eyes and I know how easily I would forego the morning brew and the pleasure of morn’s first light if darkness’ magic spell would only last long enough to bring you unto me [This message has been edited by Corazon (edited 06-27-2000).] |

Achingly sweet... bittersweet actually...  Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn. JP "Everything is your own damn fault, if you are any good." E. Hemmingway |

I know how hard it is to wait. I like the work and especially how the title fits the material. Excellent! |

Well, corazon three is not a number for you it seems... you waited for three days (referring back to the other poem) and now with wishes three, you are still waiting... LOL aching poem this is though... let me brighten things for you with a regards, Sudhir |
