i sit in the rain my face is all rainbow smiles i live and feel well walking a long road turning here and there to gaze hoping for some light the night can be long but always comes the dawn to brighten a heart travel on your road be true to feelings inside be gentle with you |

Thanks Michelle and dg! And dg, I'm pretty sure Desiderata by Max Ehrmann was at the back of my mind when I wrote that particular line... ![]() Edit: In fact now that I re-read it it is almost a direct quote - 'Desiderata' reads 'Be gentle with yourself' (Whoops!) ![]() [This message has been edited by allan (edited 07-31-2000).] |

dg, not sure if you mean the word or the poem... desiderata the word: the plural of de•sid•er•a•tum which is something wanted or needed. (Same root as desire I suppose). Desiderata the poem: You'll find the explanation at the bottom of this page. Thanks again! ![]() Dennis: Wonderful wonderful haiku - thank you ![]() |
