(This was written ina challange from a friend, the entire poem was finished in 2 minutes, from the time I got the subject till completion.) Sunrise Deep and dark is the night I sit here waiting for the light And when I think I can't go on The sun rises, here comes the dawn A sunrise bright, beyond compare The morning dew now fills the air When things are dark, I can't find my way Nature brings the light of day The colors in all their glory shine As you gently slip your hand in mine No longer lost or all alone By mornings sunrise, I have come home ------------------ This is courage...to bear unflinchingly what heaven sends. ~Eurpides |

Think of all the wonderful words you could write if you always used your time that way. |

Nice job, Ruth! Even if I write online, (email etc..), it still takes me longer than two minutes, and I know EXACTLY what I was going to say. |

Hmmmmm... as slowly as I type (and think *G*) I MIGHT could have written the second line in 2 minutes... not as a poem, but a prayer! LOL |
