Wisteria Lane Friday’s fog finds no reprieve from workday week. Life’s list of demands still haunting my mind, finding only momentary lull in untimely rhythms of wiper blades. Subtle scents of freedom escape in misty drizzle dusk. I search for a detour, perhaps a path to sane, a road not taken, found not with lamp nor lantern but in dream of Wisteria Lane To the left she lie, this road unseen except in mind’s eye Stately estate upon velvet green Inside a family, dresses for dinner, to gather 'round table set with China and polished silver aglow, each napkin pressed, folded just so. Everyday dinner needs no reason, for fine wine here is always in season. In my moment of lucid, my numb in restrain I find lift of spirit in Wisteria Lane Now a rear view reflection, this sleeping street, calls to hold her in dream... reality 'tis never as sweet [This message has been edited by Sunshine (10-12-2003 09:21 AM).] |

In my moment of lucid, my numb in restrain I find lift of spirit in Wisteria Lane ~*~ Something tells me you're going to make your own... you've already started... |

Subtle scents of freedom escape in misty drizzle dusk. Great poem, dear Patricia. But you know as you say it ... precious China etc. isn't a guarantee for happiness ... Love and hugs. Margherita  |

So many of us, multitudes....billions, wish we could have that moment on Wisteria Lane....but would it only be just a moment, or could it be a lifetime? Perceptions, for often the rich are hungry...and some of the poor are pleased to be just alive... Great write Patricia, nicely written, what a message.. |

Now a rear view reflection, this sleeping street, calls to hold her in dream... reality 'tis never as sweet Here, here!!! Nevertheless, it sure inspired a beauty of a poem. Really nice write Patricia, and a timely message indeed. |

I search for a detour, perhaps a path to sane, a road not taken, found not with lamp nor lantern but in dream of Wisteria Lane Never give up your dreams, sweet patricia, for one day rthey could very well become realities.  By the way, I love wisterias. This is a picture of a vine a friend of mine has....  Hugs to you sweet lady...... and one for your girls, too  Ethel |

It's a happy thing that the rear-view mirror is so small, compared to the windshield.... |

 (smiles) Oh Patricia, this is beautiful, sweet friend, I too believe that the poor know what true happiness is much more than the rich, and I only wish the rich could see the faces reflected through the china and blue crystalware and give them a hand! (big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Patricia, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |
