Field of Buttercups I'll never find another field Of buttercups of yellowness Where I can sit by barn of stone In shadows of its mellowness And read my book of poetry In solitude and pensive mood Each line is wine meant for the heart And for the soul a wanted food A place where field is all my own Not even sparrow interrupts No lovelier place I've ever known Than a field that's laced with buttercups Elizabeth Santos |

How I love the buttercups. I sit and take my fill. Watching yet as they fill up, dancing outside my windowsill. Elizabeth - You surely made me see the buttercups splendor. B E A U T I F U L ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

I personally think that buttercups don't get the appreciation they deserve... Bravo!  [This message has been edited by Nan (edited 11-29-1999).] |
