A BUS RIDE...... I am sitting on the bus Looking at these people And wondering what they're thinking Looking back at me Do they see a woman, filled with confidence and perfection Always happy, always smiling Always free Or do they see a woman With her heart a little fragile With tears beneath the surface Waiting for the moment when her face will tell the story of an requited love... Am I that transparent - even on a bus? |

Probably not Roniece...I didn't see it even from here (and we all know that an inside look is more revealing than the outside anyday!). ![]() "The finest qualities of our nature, like the bloom on fruits, can be preserved only by the most delicate handling. Yet, we do not treat ourselves nor another thus tenderly." ~Henry David Thoreau |

I have often thought these same thoughts, and how nicely you express them Liz |

While looking out from behind these eyes I often think with great surprise the eyes I'm looking in are looking back at me then I smile ... confident that they see the very best in me. I like your bus trip. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
