Moments Notice Between the lights of lyrics filling the summer wind The embrace of gaze captured the tunes of amaze Releasing the intrigue of capture in a slow descend Watching as the setting sun set the horizon ablaze Hidden in the top row of shadows set in a slow sway Rhythm of wonder called upon destiny for a chance Two seperate worlds relishing each rising note in play Unaware of a merge where they would together dance A song with no words being written in tomorrow's pen Waiting for two hearts to script ink in a beginning note Visions of harmonies set in the dream of future begin Resting in crescendos of future hope that destiny wrote Time upon chance and chance upon admiration's glow Relinquishing barriers of chorus set against each sigh Forging new paths against what we have come to know Setting the stage for a private concert within August sky Mark Christopher |

Maga~ Look at you ... coming home with a beauty once more~  I hope that life has been generous with you and that happiness guides your footsteps~ I have missed you, my friend~ Ya' could email a body once in awhile, you know !! So much time has gone by ... so many things have changed ... so much remains the same~ You've bought my book, ... yes ? WRITE ME !!! *Huglets*  ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Hidden in the top row of shadows set in a slow sway Rhythm of wonder called upon destiny for a chance Two seperate worlds relishing each rising note in play Unaware of a merge where they would together dance ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am smiling so bright right about now, your poem made my breath catch, just short of an endless sigh~ Thank you for your nice reply to my poem, I apprciate that. It's a real treat to read you here, Mark~ |

Your prhasing, coupled with the imagery, make me read slower, which was quite nice with your title...like a leaf falling in slo-mo..."notice this." Nice work, as always. Good to see you again. |

Mark! You've been gone so long, I was beginning to think that you had been eaten by that tiger!  This is so lyrical, 'visually' appealing, and poetic, I believe that it is a song, a painting, and a poem all wrapped up in one creatively appealing post!  Giving you a very warm, welcome-back pip hug, Linda |

Hi Mark! Wonderful to read you again...your melody is still as lyrical and visual as I remember and couples something loving from the heart, as well. |

Mark, Hi, it's nice to meet you here on these blue PiP pages. I have been reading your poem since the day that you posted it. I think I have worn holes in it by now. It's a beautiful poem - and I hope that you stick around and share more with us. Alison |

A song with no words being written in tomorrow's pen Waiting for two hearts to script ink in a beginning note Visions of harmonies set in the dream of future begin I'm very glad Blues brought this back up again... for though August skies are gone, this is a concert I would have hated to miss. *S* Beautiful work! |
