Take the pieces of me
tempered in the limelight
where I might fall gracefully
blazing in bronze~

Lay me down upon the horizon
sinking in the mystery
gazing across the sea
arching over the edge~

Holding up today
that colors our tomorrow's
come to me beseechingly
bending over my bow~

Cascading beneath a flaxen sun
cease me in the moment
blending with your reverie
and the sweetness of my sorrow~

Lori,
Thought this belonged in adult! But I was wrong...again. As always an excellent write and it is so nice to see you.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Be they of your essence, all the pieces that I hold
The love of heart, the truth of act, the grace of sincerity
Do the souls of many like you, join together to all see?
The blending of all colours and the joy of unity

BluesSerenade, I enjoyed the read, the first time I have had the pleasure.

Sincerely
Rick

Lori, as usual, your words seem close to my heart. It is so odd.
Loved the poem, especially.....

Cascading beneath a flaxen sun
cease me in the moment
blending with your reverie
and the sweetness of my sorrow~

I have the fear that if I bent to far I may fall ...
but a beautiful time to do it!!  

Loved the journey!

Lyra~ Thank you,  and I hope you had the best of times in Tampa~
I knew you would make it~~~  
lucky for them.  

BC~  That was nice of you, and thanks for reading.

Noah~ Joy is a never ending reign that comes in all forms,
it's more a question of holding up~
........Hugs~

Hi Dee~  It is odd but I feel it too~
great minds think alike,
now where have I heard that before?     
It's good to see you and thanks~

Craig~ the combination is a relentless one,
when trying to paint a rainbow~
Thank you lots~
