And the evening and the morning wandered out to play Startling all creation in the middle of the day For the evening wanted dusk and the morning wanted dawn And the blending of their wishes made their wishes seems as one. Cause the stars twinkled slightly as when dusk begins to fall Or the sun peeks o're the treetops as the larks start to call. Then I caught a glimpse of heaven on that most peculiar day When the evening and the morning wandered out to play. Cause the sunset and the sunrise made a most unusual light To shine upon the heaven where there is no day or night And the rivers and the forests reflected shades of gold Twas like a land of make believe - the land where none grow old. Then in sudden realization of what I had seen and done The evening and the morning separated from their one And left to go their separate paths to 'wait the end of day. For I'd seen what only gods should see when they ventured out to play. |

I don't see the silliness... This is one of the best poems I've ever read! I loved the way the visual image flowed from your hand into my brain! Magnificent! ------------------ Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll be among the stars. -Unknown- So let the sun beat down upon my face, It's warmth will dry my tears. |

..Um.... Yeah - I wish I had written this one - very, very nice, indeed....  ------------------ Nay, if our wits run the Wild-Goose chase, I am done: For thou hast more of the Wild-Goose in one of thy wits, Than I am sure I have in my whole five. ~ ²1592 Wm.

Toerag: There was never a doubt in my mind that 'Deer was referring to you when he talked of someone in the group having talent! *G* It certainly wasn't the sailor! LOL. Thank you for the bouquets, sweets... your support means the world to me! Thank you all for the kind words... they're greatly appreciated! |
