Pacing Footsteps Pacing footsteps out my door I would they pace upon my floor Hours draining through times whole There’s little time for my goal What use the pace of timeless cast? To hang from ropes those out the past To stay the heart outside the floor To not come in and use my door The dark that seems to block its road Are phantoms of another mode? One more footstep on the path Will wet my mind a showers bath Echoes from the wings that fly Set the face upon the dye And colors of a field of hue Rain upon my mind in dew It’s waiting for a simple dare To wake me from a fruitless stare |

quote: Your mind in dew ... how beautifully expressed. Those footsteps seem friendly, as you wish them inside your door. May you never feel lonely, dear Seymour, nor "stare fruitlessly" ... you are love and your eyes speak of love. It's an intriguing piece. Hear the knock on your door, it's my thought of love for you. Hugs. Margherita ![]() |

The vision is beautiful with words that sing...there seems to be a touch of melancholy so I send you extra *Big Hugs* |

"Hours draining through times whole There’s little time for my goal" but you are timeless Sir Sy and this poem is excellent and thought provoking |

Hours draining through times whole There’s little time for my goal Then you better darn well hurry up! ![]() This was so beautifully done, and rhymed Sy. Here's something for you to do today during Passover. Passover Quiz |

"One more footstep on the path Will wet my mind a showers bath" VS "colors of a field of hue Rain upon my mind in dew" Your mind will get washed in either way. I love those comparing. enjoyed very much as always. happy Easter, sir. |
