It’s Cold In Pennsylvania It’s cold in Pennsylvania Here, I sit alone Thinking of this love of ours And how it’s quickly grown The wind outside the window Is blowing fierce and strong The night is dark and lonely And with out you, oh, so long It’s cold In Pennsylvania You're so many miles away Yet, it seems were getting closer Each day by passing day The winter night surrounds me Yet, there’s spring down in my soul Your love, it has revived me Completes me, makes me whole It’s cold in Pennsylvania As I think of you tonight Longing for your gentle touch To my heart, it gives flight I gaze out on the snowy ground And feel the night air’s chill Knowing that we’ll be together If there’s a way or will It’s cold in Pennsylvania Darling, please fulfill my wishes Come wrap me in your tender love And cover me with kisses < !signature--> At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet. ~Plato [This message has been edited by hoot_owl_rn (edited 01-18-2000).] |

This is lovely, Ruth! Nothing like the warmth of love to take away the chill! (Are you feeling any better today, Ruth?) |

I'm sitting here in Canada lonely is the night I wonder who this poem is for....could it be...First Night Flowing words I read Like the swift owl's wing indeed I wonder could it be Is she the one, or he the one for she? Through frosty nights I hear the call What else should an Owl do thats a gal  Passion I can read and see Keep writing such good poetry  The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

The warm fuzzies on a cold winter night! Awwwww! I think you've been bitten by more than one bug huh? <*\\\>< Where there is faith, there is love. Where there is love, there is peace. Where there is peace, there is GOD. Where there is GOD, there is no need. Hallmark |

Honey, I know its cold, And this a tad bit bold. But never will you be, So far that you can't see. That in my arms of love, Your sheltered as a dove. Alone you'll never be, Because you hold the key. The key to my heart, Where I can't depart. No matter time or space, I will be, just because you,.... You loved me. Missing you....is missing me. I love you Ruth < !signature--> Drive it like you stole it...LOL And another thing...When I rev my engine I want people to think the world is coming to a end....hehehe [This message has been edited by First__Knight (edited 01-19-2000).] |

Hoot- Baby, it's cold OUTSIDE ! Where love lives ... it's always just the right temperature. Sounds like the temperature is on the rise in a couple of hearts. Gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling ! ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Hoot, My feet are freezing, my fingers are cold, the wind is blowing, my azaleas look dead, my mail is still out in the mailbox, my car won't start, it's too cold to take down my Christmas lights, there's no food in the house, the fire just went out, but honey, your poem warmed everything up Liz |

I've been trying to get there dear? But I lost your address at the airport? I checked for your number in the phone book, I found a Harvey Owl, a Night Owl, and a Barn Owl...but there's not a single "Hoot" in Pennsylvania?.....Thanks for the sweet thoughts though hoot?...Oh, ya mean it wasn't meant for me?......Surely you jest?.....Very nicely done.....What's it like to be able to write poetry anyway?

The love of my life hails from a small town in Pennsylvania - Charleroi? I can now equate this state with at least 2 beautiful people. I'm feeling cold here in Wisconsin and in the middle of a snow storm. Thanks for warming things up with your poem. |
