        The essence of our spoken word's mere thought Of actions, when surmised are just intent. Interpretation from our doings lent; Words ineffectual are vowed for naught. Intrinsic trust's from inference ne'er wrought ~ Each overt deed derives impressions spent; Deficiencies mar aspirations meant ~ Verbiage perceived is often nary sought. Absent resolve's inadequate prepense; Avowed intent once covenant's achieved, Reality's defined by compeer's heed. All credibility for promise hence Ambitions met ~ then credence is conceived; Enacted words are truly Words InDeed. [This message has been edited by Nan (edited 01-22-2001).] |

WOW! This was superb Nan! I loved the style and the language within, really amazing ... beautifully written! (now remind me never to play a word game with you Nan ... I'd lose miserably, LOL.)  Best wishes, /Kit |

Nan, I agree with Kit and Marge, great poem, but you'd beat me hands down in Scrabble or any other word game! write on Keth. Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |

Nan, Words indeed, but some times looks will do the deed. Loved your poem almost as much as I love you. Sy |

I'll second that Wow! You truly are the queen of sonnets, you pen them to perfection with that added flair all your own. Your graphic was clever and very effective. Take care, Melissa< !signature--> The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams [This message has been edited by Melissa Honeybee (edited 01-22-2001).] |

Wow, this is great! You speak with such great rhythm and cadence here! Yes, enacted words are still words, which deserve our respect indeed. Hey, by the way, I love Scrabble very much, it's one of my favorite games! (giggles) Thank you for sharing, my friend! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
