Wise words at her disposal She's at the starting gate Put forth ideas of her proposal With implicit trust in fate She's lifting up her pen to write Her muse is shining hotly bright Encapsulating sorrow's plight In the magic of her rite She's lifting up her pen to write Standing tall against the night Her muse is shining hotly bright As she reveals wisdom's insight Holding power as sacred right Encapsulating sorrow's plight As she reveals wisdom's insight She's lifting up her pen to write Completes the marathon of write Her muse is shining hotly bright Surrendering all to sacred rite She doffs her hat and bids goodnight Wise words at her disposal She's at the closing gate Puts forth the care in her proposal Implicitly trusts in fate She's lifting up her pen to write… Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant - Thoreau |

Kethry, you have almost captured the elusive Doreen...and you have done a wondrous job... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

That's Doreen.. I wish that I could pick up a pen and the words flow as beautifully as they do from Doreen. Nice piece hon. Love, Lady Live in my world just once and you'll find yourself enraptured. |

awwwwwww geeeeezzzz *blush* Kethry- i am extremely honored...you are very kind to have written this and i don't know quite what to say except.... thank you! wise? hmmmmm.... moi? nah... but if you get that impression from my confusion and ramblings, then, i guess there's more in my head then i thought, so i guess i'll just keep digging and spewing it out, if you guys keep reading it ... thanks again so very much and thanks to all who responded for your very kind comments  [This message has been edited by doreen peri (edited 12-02-2000).] |

BRAVO, Bravo Kethry.... You're so right. Everytime I read one of her pieces, it's always packed with so much wisdom and wit. She is a wonderful poet. And so are you Kethry...you've done a great job with this one! ~Sheri "The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by those who got there first" |

Sunshine, Well it was a bit like trying to capture stardust, but I'm glad you think I reflected her semi-accurately Nan, I agree she deserves this "blue" or "read" 'Deer, Yeppers she is indescribile, like viewing the universe through the wrong end of a telescope,(everything's in there but it's not viewable to the naked eye. My poetry's indescribable too (for a different reason )Mushy, With you on her side how can she go wrong. Btw she's charming is that why you uttered it. Ladycat, as do I Wil, considering that these words come from the master of right I'm sure she will be pleased. Sven, I know! I got it from you remember  Irie, Well I think she's won poet in a million. Debbie, You can write like me all you need is a brain more convolulted . Doreen has one of the most convoluted brains I've ever seen (except for Leonardo Da Vinci)Doreen, If I could take your essence,bottle it and "thin" sell it to the public as cures for everythin' I think I'd make my fortune for all would deign to see the world in all it's beauty and pure "poertree" But your elusive muse, captures me instead in copying you my brain hurts I'd better go to bed. See what your inspiration, does to me tonight! I hope you don't catch Sven's plague, as you go on with rite.
