Winter Storms White blankets of snow cover the ground. Icicles hang, daintily, in rows, from rooftops. Nestled under a comforter of down, Together, we lay, cradled in warmth; Enjoying the winter storm; Ravished by our love. < !signature--> At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet. ~Plato [This message has been edited by hoot_owl_rn (edited 01-20-2000).] |

In the middle of a cold storm you find warmth and happiness. I love the feelings this stirs up. Love certainly becomes you Ruth. Well done  Poetry~ Words falling on paper, painting a dream. Shawna R. Holder Boise, Idaho |

Winter spelled in a vertical way, give rise to creative words at play. Love in your arms On winters chilly day Vision of mistic charms Ever in memory to stay In admiration of your work. DH |

Short and wonderfully sweet, just like our snow storms up here. I would love to be able to wrap up in warmth, such as you've displayed, during this time of winter. (lol@shovel)  May I never be too busy to help another's load, Then I'll be drinking from the saucer 'cause my cup has overflowed. --Author Unknown |

Well, this is nicely done I can see you are the one Not just to say...how nice Thought I add a nice surprise Eventually you will see Ruth and her poem…how inspiring she can be Friend of mine Ruth you are a divine In all the time I've know you, I have to say Eagerly I read your poetic display Nothing ever will stop me Deeply to adore thee A nice poem that you wrote. I hope you can see what I tried to do here, especially for you. Just the first letters did'nt came out bold. I guess you still ahead of me. And why shouldn't you be Hugs and Love Helmut The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

Ruth, beautiful poem, and thank you for describing winter to me, cause we dont seem to have winters here LoL, tend to skip right over it =) ~*~ ^i^ ~*~ Love is such a lonely art, and death is but a taste. Minds are merely instruments that often go to waste! ~*~ ^i^ ~*~ |

In time you'll see the Spring break free, Heralding new growths of green. Again the winter will give way, To the time when lovers sway Ever in grasps of desire To love anew as days transpire. Hear the birds sing forth the days, In trilling songs as breezes sway Supple tree and flowering bloom, Decrying Winter's now gone gloom. Arise and sing for life anew, Revel! These days are made for you. No more the Winter will send its blast, Withering your soul unto its last. Irreverent winds will be dispursed, No more will you feel their curse. Tomorrow brings warmth and light, Entreating us with warm delight. Resolve to live fully your life! ! [This message has been edited by LngJhnAg (edited 01-21-2000).] |

Ruth, I'm sure glad to see you're cozy, calm, and collected in this wonderful winter ditty, but if you could spare a few minutes of your time, I need some serious reassuring on this "meeting" thing! Have you and your man actually met, and if yes, please tell me how it went, cause we have one week left, and all I can do is think "jitters".....you know, the bad stuff....HELP! Reassure me please! ** I'm reaching for the brightest star I've ever seen - knock my ladder out from under me, and you'll wish you hadn't !! -pFF ** Here's to 2000! |
