 ~*~ TRUE SELF ~*~ Ebony blanket covers~ The cellophone sky~ Hiding the brilliance of day. Twilight comes. Stars begin to fall in whispers. The sea is almost still. Such calmness surrounds me. And sometimes~ In this darkness of night~ In this absolute silence~ Serenity, and calm~ That is everywhere~ I am able then most easily~ To hear the voice of My “true self”. I sit breathlessly~ With my ear~ Pressed firmly~ To the wall~ Between me~ And my heart. In absolute silence~ I wait, wish, listen~ And soon~ My spirit rises. And in the wake~ Of a whisper~ Mind's eye~ sees all answers~ To truth, hope~ And love~ The reason to exist. ~*~ Mysteria ~*~ © Copyright 2000 All Rights Reserved ~*~A poet is someone who reads more than they write ~*~ |

This has got to be my favorite, theres lessons to be learnt here  Don't ever give in, if you do you've lost everything you've ever had and everything you hope to gain, but if you carry on your already winning. |

This creates a beautiful mood. I enjoyed reading it and also the music and artwork. They are perfect for the poem. Betty Lou Hebert |

Oh I love this! beautiful! Maree I may know the word but not say it I may know the truth but not face it I may hear a sound a whisper sacred and profound but turn my head indifferent. Natalie Merchant [This message has been edited by Dark Angel (edited 03-10-2001).] |

This is simply beautiful!! The poem, the picture, and the music seem to go so well together. Very nicely done!! Lone Wolf 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 |

Thank you all for your acceptance of this peace, I am in search of my "real" place on this plant, and write many about my quiet times, and I am so glad that you enjoyed this as there are a lot where this came from, it is called my soul! ~*~A poet is someone who reads more than they write ~*~ |
