~*~ Have you ever touched a rainbow, Colored bands of misty hues, Arching across cerulean sky, When summer rain is through? Your heart can rise to meet it, Mingling with the glowing lights, Becoming one with rainbow, Fills your spirit with delight! ~*~ |

  (smiles) Yay!!! Oh my gosh, I love rainbows sooooooo much, in fact I have the hippy spirit in me and love wearing tie-dye and created my own character before in poetry named The Rainbow Dancer! (kiss on cheek) Yay, groovy girl, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story ***Shakira*** [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (05-13-2003 12:19 AM).] |

A fitting subject for poetry. Nor does it need the fabled pot of gold. Enjoyed by adult and child alike. Symbol of storms end, of peace, of wonder. Captured well in your poem. Frank Tymon |

I’ve yet to touch one myself... But they never fail to touch me... Mother Nature‘s Bridge Of Hope... A very vibrant poem! Richy |

Earth Angel, I've touched the ones in my sleeping vie but not the ones in the sky. Excellent.  |

A very special poem; I enjoyed reading this! Sometimes there is nothing better for the heart than to reach for a rainbow... “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson |

I've never touched a rainbow Or felt its prismed mist But I've inhaled such beauty From poems Angel-kissed Three hundred times you've given To us pieces of your heart We've laughed at times and cried as well As we devoured your art None of us know the future So we don't know what's in store Still I plan to read your next three hundred And at least three hundred more!  Congratulations!!! [This message has been edited by suthern (05-13-2003 03:49 PM).] |

suthern ~ Mwaaah! XO You little darlin'! You've made my smile stretch from ear to ear and I look rather peculiar--but I'm happy! That was so incredibly thoughtful of you to write me this wonderful keepsake poem! I have already copied it to a Word File of special replies and poems that some Pipsters have previously written for me--you already being one of them! Delightful and very, very special! Thank you! ~ May rainbows paint your path in life with glorious and vibrant colors... Loving hugs, Linda |
