Winter 2003 Solstice dark Bird song gone even crows silent Enjoy the cold while it lasts and the bright white snow Tell them what it was like They won’t know when it rains instead maybe won’t care Cookies, caramels fats we no longer need for our built-in greed Against the dark we light our fires with their forests’ remains We are the new dinosaurs © 121803 v3 [This message has been edited by Krawdad (12-20-2003 12:28 AM).] |

Interesting poem but I still liked it. Cold hands means a warm heart |

Mr. Krawdad, Your words will not leave me soon. A very thought provoking piece and the final line...Wow...I know I will discuss this poem and thought behind it with my friends and co-workers. Thanks for making me think. Patricia |

Julie, Patricia, Thanks for your interest. Events that we don't control, like the solstice, remind me of what we have lost control of. Perhaps I should be posting in the "dark" forum . . . e |

loved that ending though it's a painful truth perhaps we deserve the same fate? |

Good punch at the end, I agree, we have created a painful truth... What happened to your picture??? ~K~ |

iliana, Thanks for commenting. The alias is a letter scramble of part of my "real" name. (wish I had a more exciting story . . . oh, maybe I should make one up . . .)  Hi Dixie, You are much too kind, but thanks, I'll take it.  Kacy, Glad you liked. You know, sadly, I think we can't help ourselves.  Kahlil, Thanks. And the pic? Well, I got tired of looking at myself every time I showed up here.  [This message has been edited by Krawdad (12-20-2003 01:20 AM).] |

   (big hugggsssssss) It seems it's all part of true nature and evolution and I only hope that charity doesn't become long forgotten as our animal urges and gluttony continue to go on! (sad sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, happy holidays, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Krawdad, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |

Krawdad... I felt the sting of truth in this. It's good to see you here! I miss the photo too. Perhaps you have another? Happy Holidays to you! |
