somewhere on the path of life my steps strayed and I lost sight of my life's beacon I followed flickers of light across earth's stormy shores searching seeking calling for anyone to hear my plea empty and aching inside head swelled in pride I turned away the one hand extended in my plight the one true heart that sought me that accepted me as I was imperfect and battle weary the one heart who wiped my salt-worn eyes and soothed my fears with a healing balm of true love when finally the storm broke and the misty air cleared I saw my path home back to the doorstep from which my journey had started ------------------ Every man has in himself a continent of undiscovered character. Happy is he who acts Columbus to his own soul.......J. Stevens |

I'm sure the horses are happy to have you back! A beautiful poem, Izzy......signed, Balladeer, the fella you used to like and pay attention to a long time ago when the air was fresh and cool and the fresh scent of lilacs filled the evening breeze as we discussed life in general, making each other smile with our silly remarks before you began ignoring me completely, which I haven't really noticed. |

Izzy, I really feel the pain in some of your work, my hear goes out to you. Points to ponder..wouldst thou be able to share love coming home having not learned it elsewhere? Wonderful work as always. ------------------ Michael Anderson When God puts a tear in your eye, He puts a rainbow in your heart. |
