Hide and Seek It’s funny how the mind is weak And plays these games of hide and seek In youth, the conscience as it should Rebukes the bad, promotes the good The older mind , more lightly clad Recalls the good, forgets the bad Elizabeth Santos [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (edited 02-29-2000).] |

Recall the good and forget the bad. That`s something that we all should do. Just one man`s thought. Ya know it does sound odd to be able to say that we were all born in the last century. Thank you for another nice read Elizabeth [This message has been edited by RufffRyder (edited 02-29-2000).] |

But could it be true, That from the mind of the wise Nothing can hide, yet all is good ? |

So true, my friend, so true. This is a beauty and it will be treated as such when it is kept in my collection of favorite poems! Love and hugs, Lizzie "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |
