 Artist: Ron Russel In Full Sail ~ Linda L. Dowd ~ I travel the solar system, Swinging from a comet’s tail, ~Among 9 spinning planets, With my spirit in full sail. I’m hot like planet Mercury, I brim with Venus love. I’m in tune with the Universe And all its Light thereof. It’s to Earth that I return to, But it’s not where I am from. I hail from a distant star world, ~Far from your Father Sun. I swing from crescent moons, And soar among the stars. I slide down cosmic moonbeams, And glow like planet Mars. I’m big like planet Jupiter, I wear many a Saturn ring. I’m erratic like Uranus As thru' Milky Way I wing. Neptune bears his trident, Tiny Pluto’s far from home. I'm in perpetual motion, As merrily I roam. I travel the solar system, Swinging from a comet’s tail, ~Among 9 spinning planets With my spirit in full sail. “We are borne of star dust, and to the stars we shall one day return.” ~ Linda L. Dowd [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (07-07-2006 02:35 AM).] |

Thank you all for your wonderful comments! Recently I have been more of a star-gazer than usual and hence my writing of this poem. I'm pleased that you enjoyed reading it.  Love & Star Light, Linda |

Earth Angel, I understand only too well, why, like me, you have become a star gazer. It helps a lot to look up into that infinite, silent, navy blue sky of sweet, unpolluted air with its twinkling diamond messengers wording comforting Sky Angel replies down at you. I am glad you are doing that. Love, light, comfort and prayers - Owl |

Well, dear Linda, you soar so majestically among our planets and I am happy to soar with you along your radiant words ... This is a keeper for me ... another stargazer, lost in contemplation. Those planets are not barren, I just read, but life evolves on other dimensions we can't yet see, but sensitive awakened hearts and souls like you CAN. wONDERFUL! lOVE AND HUGS. Margherita  |

This piece is absolutely breathtaking! The visuals are perfection and the thoughts behind them whisper to my daydreaming heart. I look forward to finding more of your work, as well as the many other talented artists I've disovered in this bit of cyberspace! The artist is nothing without the gift, |

Linda, I agree with all those before me. I am one who loves soaring high above every chance I get ( when the winds are calm). Beautiful read my friend, I hope you don't mind if I print this up. Hugs to you my friend. :-) Until he extends the circle of his compassion to all living things, |
