A Somber Goodbye By Paul Wilson Lost are the words that so smoothly use to flow Stroke of key would often take me over the rainbow Beyond the highest clouds below the lowest low I found peace within my soul seems like so many years ago We fought villains and demons side by side you and I Sometimes words would make me laugh sometimes they would make me cry I was able to glimpse into the future thru the words you shared with me The future has faded away gone forever I no longer see I’d journey back to what use to be but no longer can I find the way My mind is wanting… hungry for one more poem one more day I hear a voice calling me don’t go…please stay Time has come life has passed me by this old heart has nothing more to say Perhaps another place and time we will meet again Brought together by poetry but now we say goodbye my friend ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

Dear Paul, you write so beautifully, see?! But no good-bye, no please. We love you and your poems. Just sit and listen ... and write. Memories will inspire you, but also moments of the now. Don't doubt. Open the door to the muse ... Love, Margherita |

Paul - my friend, please don't go anywhere. Your poems are great and you do have a whole lot to say. Keep writing, as the words will come... BC |

Paul, you will always be able to find the words! ~ Ya see! ~ You just found the words to say that you can't find the words! Paul, you are a poet through and through. There is no doubt of that! It does appear, however, that you are experiencing a bit of a down-time emotionally, and for that I am giving you a warm, loving, compassionate hug. Love, Linda |

Margherita...My dear lady I am trying and trying but most all the time it seems hopeless, so I do as you say I sit and think about the memories and try too make new visions from my thoughts but nothing happens. I will always at least be here to read the beautiful poems of each of you...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

Linda...You are just a smarty pants, telling me I found the words to write this poem LOL. It's been so long since I've really been able to write my heart, sometime I feel like I said " This old heart has nothing more to say" then sweet caring people like you come along and pick me up out of my sorrow and give me another spark of life to cling onto. I really appreciate everything each of you do...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

Paul...I have not much to write about as I try to relax this summer for the first time in years~~ so.......... I go into Balladeer's workshop and try to do a challenge every now and then, picking some topic either from another poet's title or a line or something I read somewhere and take it from there. Try it hugs M |

Maureen...Thanks I did that a few years back when Vicky was posting a picture and asking us to write a poem on what it meant to us. It really worked and got the old fires burning. I really appreciate your advice...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |
