As I travel along life's winding road,
each day another step.
Reflect I sometime, on lessons learned,
on memories treasures kept.

To know others feel much the same as I,
as blue pages writ I read.
Comforts my sometime aching heart, and fills a yearning need.

Together we scale mountian high, and reach out for the stars.
Women really are from Venus, and men, they be from Mars.

But happily together dance we, the hallowed halls of cloud castles in the sky.
It's shout and cheer, seldom a jeer, as we help each other fly.

Then finally we lay our burdens down, by bubbling brook or stream.
Bend we the reality of life, and make it but a dream.

Indeed Steven that is how these blue pages work..
We laugh, we cry and unburden our fears..
But, the special thing about these pages blue?
We help each other fly.
Very nicely said.

Steven! There you are! Now I can see the wonderful face that spouts such wonderful words!

It was an auspicious day when you first popped into pip outta the blue and onto these pages of blue!

Big, warm hug to you, my fellow Pipster!

We take the bent reality of life, and dream it straight. It can be, you know.....

Steve....I didn't know who DW was either, so I had to email Sunshine to find out.  You may look a tiny bit like him.

MyFriend~
Your words paint the pages blue
with love and understanding
This is all we poets do
for in reading is found the inspire
of desire
to keep on reading
and writing
of sharing
and caring
of wearing our hearts
on the sleeves of blue
this is what
we poets do~

And ... I see a bit of 'Little Man' in those eyes of yours~

*Huglets*
~*Marge*~

~*No matter what I search for ...
let me know when it is LOVE that I find*~ <))><

It's shout and cheer, seldom a jeer, as we help each other fly.

And when flight isn't possible, we help each other limp along. *S*

I like this very much... glad you found these blue pages! *S*

Thanks Marge, I told my older son that this is what he'll look like in 30 years. His reply," Now thats a sobering though dad.":-)

Sunshine, tell the truth, did you scratch your head all day like I did?

Suthern, Thank you very much. I think it's about 50/50 with me, fly one day limp the next.
