Dreams are like a God-send if we can only understand but it’s like the mind retains the feel of ages past when lovers loved and lived in well founded certainty. Another face, another name, but I am not dismayed or confused by the dream for the feel is still the same, the reaching up the same, and that knowing overtakes night time trickery. I think again another life will find me finding you and so it is for every one who well and truly loved before the quirks of life made of the together two separate parts. You love me, yes, you love me not, no happy daisy chain this lot that stretches for a million years and brings in the yearn and want time and time again. Option one, no, maybe two, perhaps I’ll think there is a way to live today like yesterday and carry over happiness but, but, but, I sure do know how creative love can be and so I wait; please wait with me until love moves with the times that once fulfilled a life!

Thanks Roniece. Perhaps it's something that had to be said because my computer has remained stable enough for me to write it. |

dear friend your poetry definitely has the power of simplicity, it is difficult to write simple poems with such deep feelings. i love :the mind retains the feel of ages past when lovers loved and lived in well founded certainty. clever talks delay friendship! |

You love me, yes, you love me not, no happy daisy chain this lot that stretches for a million years and brings in the yearn and want time and time again. Dear Helen, so good your pc resists!! This is a wonderful poem and it most certainly speaks to many a heart! I believe this yearning - which seems can't ever be totally satisfied - is the yearning for the absolute perfection of God. He shines through us whenever we love. May we love enough! love and hugs Margherita |

Hello Helen...I've missed reading you. Is it you that's been missing, or I? A thought-filled and emotive poem... A contract made in the place beyond form, always causes searching for a way to make it happen, me thinks. |

Honey, it was a pleasant surprise to find a new penning of yours, this morning! "Perhaps I’ll think there is a way to live today like yesterday and carry over happiness" ~ Now that would be an innovative technique that would guarantee you millions of dollars! Keep the faith, Darlin'! The power is in your hands! ~ and in your dreams! Love to you! Linda |

Thank you all so much for your lovely replies. The computer's gone again so, yes, it just had to be said. Seems that it's not too bothered about saying thank you but I am so I've made a plan. I shall sorely miss my old pc but I guess it's time to move on and tackle Vista. Thank you all again and know I shall miss all your wonderful words until I'm back in the "saddle" again. Love Helen |

Oh thank you! I see new vistas all the time because nothing stays the same but this, of course, is based on how I'm thinking at the time. I mean, a tree is a tree, but how differently it appears when the mind and emotions are allowed to be free! |

Helen...I just hooked up my new Vista. It's wonderful not to fear constant creashes. |

Martie - we have to move with the times or else we get left behind but sometimes I'd like to just stick with what I know. "Change or die" and I think that's worth noting on a spiritual level too for those who are somewhat complacent but I'm no expert on stuff like that. Hugs to you dear lady! |
