In A Fog Where are you? Far from shore where foamy waves lap rhythmically on great hulls of steel that carry you further away from me What thoughts cross your mind? As the ocean rocks you gently to sleep and the sea serenades you with its sounds, drowning out my words What do you see? When you look out across the waters as deep and blue as my eyes that shine in love for you As the mist settles in what do you see? Do you look into your heart... Or is it clouded by the fog too? Tyson...I miss you. Ruth ------------------ Alis volat propriis (She flies with her own wings) |

Oh, Ruth ... this is so hauntingly sad and lovely. I think that's a tear in my heart that just showed up on my face. ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Oh Ruth, this is so beautiful and so hauntingly sad, very well written. I loved the first verse. ------------------ What comes from the heart goes to the heart. Samuel Coleridge |
