As I walked through the gate last evening, Stepping into my own little world, Nature seemed at its finest, As new blossoms slowly unfurled. They timidly started to shiver, As each petal loosened its hold, Soon a pale yellow flower, Appeared as the night grew cold. In moments there were many more, Reaching up to the moon's tender glow, A glorious bouquet this evening, Entertaining with their nightly show. An audience of tiny fireflies, Twinkled gaily their delight, The moonflowers all stood proudly, Bringing beauty to the night. I stared in awesome wonder, At this scene before my eyes, The splendor that You give us, Even darkness can't disguise. [This message has been edited by BSC (edited 06-08-2000).] |

"the splendor that You give us, even darkness can't disguise". Bonnie, that magic paintbrush of words that is your gift, has painted yet another masterpiece, and I feel transported to the center of it and enfolded in the peace and tranquility of your art. Thank you for that. Love, Ellie 02 |

This is my very favorite poem from you, Bonnie. I am left speechless. This may be one of the most beautiful poems, I have ever read. The flowing words and descriptive beauty through your eyes but reading deeper, what powerful meanings and message in this poem. Aaahhh, so refreshing. What may start out or look like a closed bud or flower ends with a array of beauty among creation as you look through your eyes in wonderment at the beauty. Please submit this one. My very favorite,from my heart. marcy |
