Maybe someday, I'll find the time to just lay back in some fresh, green grass, relishing the clouds as they float on by Maybe that day, under a familiar oak tree, somebody will lay with me in a beautiful silence, relishing the company that is nature and me Maybe that day will come real soon And maybe that somebody is you JNS "I celebrate myself, and sing myself, And what I assume you shall assume, For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you."-WW [This message has been edited by The Shadow in Blue (06-28-2008 06:06 PM).] |

Ah, yes! Languishing side by side on soft green grass and gazing up at the clouds in companionable silence. Sighing here. Lovely poem. Loved the coquetish closing! May love in all its glorious forms be your constant companion in life! EA |

James-I'm glad you enjoyed my slightly simple delight. secondhanddreampoet- Thanks for reading my dreamy write up. I appreciate your kudos. Yay for the randomness! Thanks for the username compliment. I mainly choose it because, much like a lot of my generation, we aren't completely ourselves, especially as teenagers (hence "The Shadow"). Plus, my favorite color is blue (hence"in Blue") -Sorry for the name dissertation. Linda- As alway, EA, you know how to make your felllow poets smile. I'm glad you relished the poem as much as I relished it when I wrote it. Thanks a bunch. TinaTrivett- I'm glad you saw the beauty in my coquet-ish poem. ^_^ JNS |

A delightful write. May you be able to transform the "maybe" into certainty and the "someday" into TODAY. Life is now. Love, Margherita |
