The essence of our spoken word's mere thought Of actions, when surmised are just intent. Interpretation from our doings lent; Words ineffectual are vowed for naught. Intrinsic trust's from inference ne'er wrought ~ Each overt deed derives impressions spent; Deficiencies mar aspirations meant ~ Verbiage percieved is often nary sought. Absent resolve's inadequate prepense; Avowed intent once covenant's achieved, Reality's defined by compeer's heed. All credibility for promise hence Ambitions met - then credence is conceived; Enacted words are truly Words InDeed. ![]() [This message has been edited by Nan (edited 09-26-1999).] |

I vote we create new words to describe the excellence of your verse as most adjectives are trite and fall short of describing such elegance. ------------------ Now and forever my heart hears ~one voice~. DreamEvil© |

wonderfully done ------------------ Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for awhile and leave footprints in our heart and we are never ever the same. Thank you all for leaving footprints!! |

Your meter dances like a lilting song, Your diction toes the realm of the divine; Such verses in anthologies belong ... (in other words, this piece was mighty fine!) But, no less than I have come to expect from you. It's refreshing to read the writing of someone who so obviously cherishes the English language ... Keep 'em coming, ma'am ... Nocht ------------------ "Nunc lento sonitu dicunt, morierus" (Now as I hear this bell tolling softly for another, it says to me, "Thou must die.") |

The power of words seems to be uppermost in most people's minds today... Well written Nan.. ![]() HUGS ------------------ You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. |

Positively marvelous! I read the words, crafted by a goddess of language, and relished in the joy such pearls of beauty caused me. Languishing in a state of dullness and blight, I gloried at the infusion of creativity this woman has wrought. Your words are an elixir m'lady, soothing the sorrowful soul and healing the encumbered mind. ------------------ Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn. JP |
