Caught on a pinnacle a ledge of cruel self doubt ...you... question a blind uncaring sky while watching its reflection in deep water for you feel unworthy to raise your eyes ...I... poet-speak live and run to the edge of life lay the past in its garden buried forget and learn and forgive ...yourself... Mirrored and echoed we two once yet now a new time ...I... make it safe my friend Come. *For C* 26.12.99 [This message has been edited by Severn (edited 12-25-1999).] |

in which I used to fly where now holds only what? dreams hopes love hope no... still doubt yet doubt is not the end need not breed despair nor lead away from friendship from the guiding hand which cares and holds I come [This message has been edited by Christopher (edited 12-25-1999).] |

In your caring you have made a safe place--beautiful poem-beautiful you. In the dew of little things, the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. (ee cummings) |

Christopher steered me not wrong when recommending I read this piece. 'Tis lovely work my friend. Now and forever, my heart hears ~one voice~.

Severn, this was absolutely beautiful my friend. Your kind and caring nature rings clear in it. You have created a safe haven with your caring heart, it would be a fool who would not come to that safety. Christopher...wonderful response my friend. We can't look back, the past is over and done with....but, we can dream of a future to be...look ahead where your future lays and don't waste time looking back |

My, what beautiful things I miss when I'm away. I'm very glad to have found this today. It is breathtaking,as is the response...and portrays the beauty of two hearts for whom friendship patiently waits. Do not hesitate to accept the invitation. It's not the love you fear, but the fall from the height~Edwin McCain |
