The moon sparkling on the waves I feel the fool of younger souls Why tonight I have sweaty hands I 'm far too old to lose control She knows that I am quite her elder Time's not relevant together As we gaze into the fountain Ripples spread from caged bird's feather I'd lose her grasp from sweaty hands That may betray she is the first To take my hand or kiss my lips Or simply free this caged bird's thirst [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (edited 03-15-2000).] |

W.O.W.~ You succeeded in your attempt. Wonderfully done, my friend. I like the very idea of knowing the 'caged' bird has been set free. Hope to see more of your 'serious' stuff. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Walt-a-roo great job in the serious stuff! Caged and set free, only way to be! <*\\\>< There's only two ways you can go... One way you can save your riches, And the other will save your soul. Rich Mullins |

Nicely done, Walt. This definately is a far cry from your normal style, but still excellently done |

Does this mean that you're "outa control" when you're being serious? and "in control" when you're being wayout??.. Either way, it works for you.. Nice job, wow... |
