Poetry is all A landscape of painted words A portrait of life Each day drawn from yesterday A rhythmic spectrum of time |

He captured my eye An ancient wisdom shone through Eyes of purest blue Poignantly omniscient While his peace fell over me [This message has been edited by Munda (edited 09-08-2001).] |

You have still a life to live Speak it while you can Stirring coffee, as he died Rings to sing his eulogy |

Ah! the memory Of a life full of wisdom Speaking from the heart On that very fateful day Passing on a legacy God is our inspiration; Words of the heart can be music to our ears |

Time, mirror of life Reflections of inner most Smiles upon a tear Thorns of bitterness, yet hope Guide to eternally love ~*Theresia~* |
