Point of Origin I can not tell you where or when this fire of ours started; or how you warmed this soul of mine, so cold and broken hearted. I can not say what caused the spark that soon became a flame. The time or place that it began I can not really name. Was it when I first heard your voice fall softly on my ear? Or when looking in your eyes I saw our love reflected there? Could it have been when we first kissed on that October day? Or the first time you held my hand? I can not really say. Amazing how a spark can grow so quickly to a fire; and friendship grow into a love; and love into desire. No, it matters not where it began, but only that it ends in a fire of love that started with a spark that we call friends. ------------------ "Nobody has measured, not even poets, how much the heart can hold" ~Zelda Fitzgerald |

This a wonderful piece, it captures the essential "spark" of love and friendship well.  Not to mention, a well done format. ------------------ Shall I indulge in flights of fancy hampered by clipped wings? DreamEvil© [This message has been edited by DreamEvil (edited 08-03-99).] |

Dream....thank you, you are a dear Elvira....thanks, but it wasn't quite as smooth as I would have liked, but what can I expect for 3 AM Angel...thanks, I had a hard time ending this one, wasn't sure if it worked or not, was rather nervous about posting it Tim...No, thank you for your kind words. I really do not work too hard on my writing, sometimes it shows, other times I get lucky Delorees....Thanks, all love should start with freindship. I could not agree more |
