I have not come this way to see my own shadow. I have not ventured forth to abandon my faith. I have seen all there is in the heart of the the lowlands. And now wish to find my place in the stars. Beyond the forest and fields Fending off subdued alarms And our preference to weep A mere madness for the moment For in truth I am a Prisoner Along my trail you see the rabble We are infected with a wanderlust Our poor condition won't deter Under your imagination With your vistas and your influence Myself so long inside the void To suffer loss, it's own reward I once loved the near forgotten Who's caresses I preserved She is soaring in your garden And on occasion lends you words Rick Delmonico [This message has been edited by rad802 (03-29-2009 10:11 PM).] |

Probably I should name my poems something like"photos of naked celebrities". Maybe then, someone would read them. |

I have always been a fan. Your writing never fails to touch a place deep in the heart. So good, radman~ |

I don't think I would have clicked on a poem titled "photos of naked celebrities"... I've seen enough of Brittany! LOL So I'm glad you didn't retitle... *S* I especially like the ending verse... beautiful work! |
