Inside the shadow's shadow

0 posted 2003-04-16 12:32 PM


As I
Close my
Tired, so tired,
Drooping, pleading,
Eyelids, and I slowly yawn,
I stop and I turn
To the sky
And I
Pray


Yeah...I know...Didn't do this right but it was a first attempt and who said there had to be straight and narrow rules, right? lol


I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man.

Lauren:

as far as I see it - when rules overcome
heart then you might as well stop writing
This is beautiful - its the message that counts

(hehe I did a sonnet that was not a
"pure" sonnet - it still counted)

I try not to pray when I get so tired because I end up not finishing the prayer and I'm afraid that I'm losing out on something.

Anyway, nicely done.  Keep experimenting.

Oh a KoKo poem! Hi KoKo This is lovely little piece! Wow, you don't know how much I relate to this right now. I haven't slept in around 40 hours and I'm just sitting lost inside myself right now LOL I think a little prayer like this shall do me good!

This is wonderful! Nothing better than to fall asleep with a prayer in the heart ... even if it is not finished ...
And really there is no need for strict rules .... when the heart expresses itself so beautifully.
Love, Margherita

This is simply wonderful. No idea what you were trying to use, but, this form reads well and the message great.

I could not want for more.

Enjoyed greatly, Hugs, Pat
