5482 Carried Forth 20 June 2006 Contentment, honour, beauty was this love Her heart the soul her being, beauty Just to know if to understand With eyes a window this mercy she does behold Carried forth in open will this desire, giving in kind Such wonder, an enlightenment would she love, would she take him to her side Together content, apart in misery was this love, and could it ever be The Libra child is a born diplomat, a peace-loving sort who wants everyone to get along. The Libra child can be fickle and indecisive at times, in having a tendency to see all sides of an issue! A born mediator, he or she is a sensitive individual and likes to be shielded from the unhappy side of life, at times content to live with illusions. The Libra child loves beauty, colours, music, and the arts. If not talented in the arts, he or she will deeply appreciate them. Libras often show a great sense of sympathy toward people and are good at using tact. A Libra is likely to be an attentive listener who shows genuine compassion for others. © 2006 Christopher W Herbert (a New Zealand Poet) a poet who cares |

I very much enjoyed your poem and the description of Libra's child! There would be more balance in this world if everyone had a bit of the Libran in them!   Linda  |

It certainly describes her in showing compassion for others Only I just never saw it that way, as if the footnote was an after thought as always Shame she was in New Zealand 6 months ago and I'm not Canadian, and our path only crossed two weeks ago then that's timing for you - or just getting personal on my part I think you might have opened my eyes even more Linda, with your kind words Then she was not born in Canada either, just happens to live there a poet who cares |
