Searching the Plains for the Plane….. In the shadow of purple summer's night I sense your touch, feel breath light, thus comes to me calming memory, a love I hold so dear, closely… it was a night, such as this when I held fast to your last kiss stroked your brow, held your hand and felt my heart in pain expand… this space so void, this chasm so black only in memory do I have you back, two crystal goblets of wine I pour, to drink to your memory ever more… and as I taste this wine, bitter sweet, night's summer warmness is replete gently into its blackness I fall as I search for you in crimson pall for although your body is not near mine I feel you there … through space and time, there, on a plane, an unknown mystery where your love I long to hold to me… this life's long pursuit to not be denied to re-kindle love, again be entwined I will search, though tears make eyes blind there, on a plane, transparent as time ~*~ Revised from 2000 |

This is such a heart-aching write. Full of hope and strength, but also sorrow and loneliness. Beautiful, nonetheless.. in fact, more so. Always, Alyssa Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree. Joyce kilmer |

for although your body is not near mine I feel you there … through space and time, there, on a plane, an unknown mystery where your love I long to hold to me… this life's long pursuit to not be denied to re-kindle love, again be entwined I will search, though tears make eyes blind there, on a plane, transparent as time Oh, lady... it just doesn't get any more beautiful than this!!!! |

Sunshine, Gorgeous with sadness. So it seems that the best laid plans never land. I suppose that's what keeps us reaching upward! Well, this sent me mood. Time to: from computer excape... You're wicked. You know that, don't you? (BTW, I took your challenge again. Enjoy the Brew... there is more behind it than might meet the eye.) Thank you for all you've done for me. Sadie |

Your composition and phrasing are awesome. This brings me to those I've lost through death, both family and friend. Thank you. KJ Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

Brings vivid and stirring memories to my mind of my very first love. Oh, how I adored him. My family moved far away and it near broke my heart. I wonder what he has done with his life and if he is happy. Your poems often have a way of bringing up nostalgic thoughts in me! ~ and I like that. I am hopelessly sentimental!  To sweet memories to be enjoyed over and over again! Linda |

Quite mystical and magical, Karilea! And a tiny bit sad, too. Corinne |

"...there, on a plane, transparent as time." Kept passing this by thinking I'd read it - glad I finally stopped to check. Loved the "loneliness" (not the word I want but it slips the mind at the moment...) winding through here... really enjoyed - and love the last line....worlds in it. jwesley |
