Knocking Once Again, God I’m awfully tired Lord, and I do not want to be ~ ~ I’d rather be selfish, Lord, and write my poetry. There are some folks out there, on a special net who have praised my words, and now, yet those words I wrote don’t mean so very much like writing about someone’s special touch about being in love, or even being in pain about a sun’s magic, or the magic of rain. Yet, for relief from my thoughts, I go there to read the other poets’ words, for they’re what I need; they mirror some feelings, they speak to the heart I’m sure You’re not amazed at the wisdom they impart. I thank you Lord, for the catharsis you’ve shown in the enchantment of writing about the unknown, never suspecting my words would be a part of touching other’s sympathies, and their hearts. So naturally I will pray that you continue to care for the folks that do read, and write, and create wonderful art so that I may find rest, and a place to lay my heart. 15 September, 1999 ©KRJ ------------------ Sunshine Words will always express our feelings true. ~~~ KRJ Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

Iloveit, Denise, Hoot, Pepper, Severn Thank you all. That this comes across as "music" is indeed a grand compliment. |
