She looks out upon the water Wondering what ever happened to her The smell so fresh and wind so cool Makes her sight so much farther Little does she know, one exists too, Her equal, just across the water Sometimes he thinks of her, Sometimes she thinks of him He looks out upon the same blue lake Wondering what it will take To be immortal together A picture they would make As waves getting wetter Getting lost in the memory wake Sometimes he thinks of her, Sometimes she thinks of him If only their eyes, lids open could see Each other waiting distantly A perfect mirror of one another Each, a lifetime waiting patiently Will that time come? they wonder Would that it could, one day be Sometimes he thinks of her, Sometimes she thinks of him Sometimes it’s all she can take When she becomes, The lady of the lake |

Thanks so much Denise, I'm sorry I'm not replying on yours, but let me just say how good they are here and everyone's too. I'm glad I found this site...now maybe I can get inspired to get over this writer's block, and post new ones. |

JML- Man if this is writer's block ... I want to see what you spin when the muses come ! Your work has tender and poignant touch. Admirable. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

That is so nice of you Marge. I guess, don't we all feel like Garth of Wayne's World when i say..."I'm not worthy!" |
