We climb a mountainous desert, to a beckoning Indian spring, buzz of insect traffic jams, sun doing tangos on skin. Brightness of the pure sky, assures a memorable night, milky weave, falling stars let go to vigil’s light. A hot, magical brew bubbles up from the molten core, we soak away dusty roads, both traveler and explorer, pondering nature’s powers, how swiftly we forget let’s join the heavenly show, oh death, do not come yet. © 2000 CM Bailey [This message has been edited by Corinne (edited 03-16-2000).] |

Dear Corinne This is a lovely poem. "..sun doing tangos on skin" liked those lines. Nicely written poem altogether. Poeminister "...no single sound too rude Upon thy slumber shall intrude, Our thoughts, our souls- O God above! In every deed shall mingle, love." --Edgar Allan Poe (from Serenade) |

I believe I have let go, recently, its a wonderful feeling. I don't know what letting go may bring me but I sure enjoy the moment. But I think I would prefer to share the moment, with a sweet friend. Parker |

Lovely, well written poetry, I liked it loads . L.of.L .Tom . With poetry as your weapon - express your iner feelings so all may carry your sorrow, united as one . |
