Here, Now, Forever

0 posted 2002-11-18 03:15 AM




We all love each other so very, very much, you know.

So go on and cry, and then SMILE as you do so!
HAVE NO SHAME, FOR YOUR PAIN IS UNDONE, AND ONE DAY THE DREAMS WILL COME!

Dont care what they say or what they're thinkin' of,
let's all take a look in the mirror of love.

Here I stand on the edge of forever, the sun crests the edge of this world,

the trees stretch thier arms and yawn with the wind as the morning glory's petals unfurl,

The wandering wind whispers in this ear of mine,
as I sail through this birth of new light,

know you not what's near, before tommorow drives away this night?

eternities inside eternities, space and time,
lets bring it into sight.

know you not the coming rapture?
know you not the love you are?
know you not the things we've done together among all of these stars?

We all love each other so very, very much, you know.

Beneath the shroud... proclaimed aloud...
Under a glowing moon...

Swept away... in tears


I have sent you nothing but angels, and I have placed nothing but miracles before you.

this reads like a song or mantra!!
Love the alliterations, assonance and imagery....and the positive message of this ones harmonies. Very cool poet sir!!
and? that quite a critique quote LOL

No one has ever shown me how to see the world the way I see it now ...
and I never saw blue like that before.

Thank you for your replies, guys.

Janet - I am honored to have been read by a poet of your esteem and caliber.

Seymour - I second that for you!! ;-)

Pat- I see you truly enjoyed this work. I am glad for it.

Earth Angel - Thank you too my little angel.

Now what i did here was take ideas from previous separate writings and put them together.  This is by no means the final product. I think this poem is a diamond in the rough yet, because it wants to tell you something and have you know it and cherish it.. The message here is very important for all of us.

I have sent you nothing but angels, and I have placed nothing but miracles before you.

Our tears mingle with hope so that we may know the meaning of flight...

diamond in the rough, indeed.

EagleScorpion...
You said in your reply that this isn't "the final product" yet. Goodness gracious, I already can feel the deep emotions and feelings from your heart.
Thank you so much for sharing this.
