My heart is weary On this autumn night Although the body's tired The soul is light My eyes are bloodshot Bet they are a sight I am feeling shaken Full of fear and fright Uncertain of the future Tried with all my might Clouded with darkness This is my plight Somewhere up ahead Shining very bright There is a rainbow Reaching new height I spot it in the distance Reveling with delight Today at last my spirit Suddenly takes flight 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 [This message has been edited by Lone Wolf (edited 10-15-2000).] |

I spot it in the distance Reveling with delight Today at last my spirit Suddenly takes flight While reading, I was reminded of just how quickly things can change...I love the brightness and hope within your words. Robert Joseph |

LW~ i have always felt a connection to your work. and this is a perfect example why. you have almost penned my exact thoughts here. and much more beautifully and eloquently than i could have. loved the hope at the end...but the whole poem echoed your beautiful heart. take care my friend. ~Amy~ A rainbow shows us many things It can bring much needed light to a soul And mend the broken pieces of our heart Until finally once again we are whole **~~~~~~~~~~~~** |
