(As a side note, I'd like everyone to notice that I am no longer a "new" member...ahem... so in honor of this prodigious occasion, I'd like to share a little poem I wrote when I realized I first found love.) Bright sunshine of my life, it dawns over 'yon horizon. A love unknown 'til now, hope breaks on nearby beach. Closer it comes closerclosercloser, the realization awakened in me. Love, my love, love... All there is, All I need. Forever- Too near. No time is enough. A way to win, span mortal bounds? Try we must. For we have something special, so intolerably true. Hearts melded, joined as one. Bonded like none before. With you I share, Now and tomorrow. My love, your love, our love... Eternity together. (gimme a break if it's a bit wierd, I'm not used to writing things so bright and cheering. Usually I reserve my confusing text for the darker side of life!)  ------------------ ...the things I did not know at first, I learned by doing twice. -Billy Joel |

Since you are no longer a 'new member', we can stop being nice to you. I liked this one, admire the way you wrote it - you definitely have a 'sweeter' side! |

Oh Christopher, you make me sigh - I remember how it feels to be vulnerable when handing your heart to someone else...very darn scary! This brought it all back to me, so very vivid because of your tone & mood....I'm such an old "prickly pear" now that I'm nearly 100% stone, sometimes it's hard to remember things like this....(sigh again) Thank you for the trip down Christopher Lane... ------------------ - poet FemmeFatale "The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone..." Henrik Ibsen (1826-1906) Norwegian dramatist lyric poet |

Lovely! I agree - no time is enough. You have quite the distinctive style dear... and it doesn't need to be dark! |
