Too Far Gone ....

~*Marge Tindal*~

~*~
Please stay
thus pleading
in strong urging
from gentle arms
In tormented pull
she turned away
so he could not
hold her tears
She must go
before she
was just
too far
gone to
turn around'

~*~
Turning
from where
they found love
Late was just too
late to matter somehow
Please, Please come back
within the reach of my arms
aching so for holding you again

She, half-turning, stayed - for
she could go no further than the
caress of his fingertips crossing
a chasm of I-know-I-should-go,
but ...
'I'm too far gone to turn around'

*Inspired by my fella ... when he sang to me~
I love you baby~

Margie girl this is utterly utterly divine, you know how much I love shapes, and no one does them better than you darling heart.

Truly awesome, the shape is perfect the flow of the words so utterly utterly excellent. Nothing cloud be smother than this little beauty

How grateful you must be to have Bill inspire you and be able to create such wonderful words. Love the shapes you do. I have yet to figure out how to do this. But it's fascinating. You do it so well.
Hugs my friend, Marti

VanDana~
Thanks hon~

Marti~
The 'poem' sort of has a mind of it's own.
The words meander down the page creating it's own shape.
A little tweak here and there and it's SO FUN to do~

Floria~
Thank you, sweet lady~
I sure enjoy sharing them~

I love the inspiration your fella gives you... love even more the love that fills your lives. *S*

You just stay gone, sweet lady... your heart looks good painted with smiles. *S* (By the way... I meant stay gone into love... not gone from here! LOL)

Auntie Margie girl my favourite aunt, this is purely wonderful, the words the shape and you most of all. I’m so filled with wonder at this pretty impressive sight. Thank you for placing it here to delight and thank you uncle Bill for inspiring my auntie so. You take care of her she’s special  


Love and warm stuff

this "too far gone" place is where I would like to be, Marge. Sure is better than being close enough to get pulled back.
