~Peace Be The Gift~  though sunlight surrounds me I'm caught in a cloud a storm of emotions in darkness of shroud I, faint, hear the laughter beyond sorrow's door joyous sounds muffled as rain starts to pour soul trembles coldly at lightning within thunder cries out as the torrents begin then out from the storm cloud a rainbow appears sunshine peeks through lending dry to my tears a promise of love paints a canvas of sky peace be the gift from the Artist on high  ~vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes [This message has been edited by vlraynes (edited 08-12-2001).] |

Vicky, this is so wonderfully beautiful and inspiring  -it's one of your best! I found peace in the last two verses, I really love this, it's a keeper, for sure  Melissa~ "Poetry is not an opinion expressed... it is a song that rises from a bleeding wound...or a smiling mouth" ~Kahlil Gibran~ [This message has been edited by Melissa Honeybee (edited 08-11-2001).] |

If Peace resides in the rainbow, let there be rainbows 'round the planet. I love rainbows as much as I love auroras, magenta sunsets, misty mountains, and thunderous waves crashing on the shore. I really enjoyed reading this poem. |

Well I read it metaphorically, and it read so well out loud! And yes, let there be rainbows, and *winks* don't we know one? This is one of my favorites of yours now Vicky. To see real beauty ~ try closing your eyes! ~* Mysteria *~ |
