Velvet green resting
behind the waterfall mist
moss hugs rock tightly

~~*~~

Infinities touch
in droplets of a thousand
waterfall's massage

~~*~~

Fire dipping it's toes
in nightly batheing event
sunset calls the night

~~*~~

Frame by frame sequence
unfolding in dawn's silence
rosepetals blossom

These are so special, as is the poet.
The last one will stay engraved in my heart.

oh you've got the touch allright ...
everytime you touch pen to paper ... poetic magic happends....
you already know I love these and why so I dont need to say...
besides it would take way more than 5-7-5 syllables to tell ya  
way cool MC...and yes...definatly GROOVY  


When to the sessions of sweet silent thought,
I summon up remembrance of things past ...
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought.

Charisma-Thank you my friend.  I think if we all took the time to realize all the beauty that God puts before every day then life would slow down a bit and more smiles could be found.

ethome-Thank you very much sir.  I am glad that you could see the pictures.

Kathleen-Thank you so much.  I too am partial to the last one.  

Marge-Thank you my friend for always being you.

Liz-Well that makes three of us that like the last one best.  Thank you much my friend.

Karilea-Thank you for the wonderful senyru in reply

JM-If they warrant your "groovy" then I know you liked them.  Thanks sweetness, now go eat some "HEALTHY" breakfast for a change.
