Her Love was like the blackest swan, swimming 'neath the midnight sun. Gentley gliding through the lake, I watch her movements, the ripples she makes. The circles extend until no more, or get washed upon the pebbled shore. Still she moves on without a pause, Does this bird know the damage it's caused. |

Welcome to Passions!! I enjoyed the story you told. The ripple effect often goes un-noticed by those that cause the most waves. Can't wait to read more!! |

Collins, Welcome to passions!! I loved your poem. Beautiful image of the black swan. I am betting it has no idea of the damage and never will. Looking forward to more of your work. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W.

Collins~ What a lovely entrance to the family of Passion's poets. Welcome. This is truly a beautiful poem. The thought of the ripples being sent to the shore of our hearts is truly a unique look at what love can sometimes do when it goes swimming by. Hope to see more from you. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

I enjoyed this, Collins, and agree with you about the quality of this one. The only line I stumbled over a little bit, as far as meter is concerned, was the last one. Otherwise, well done poem. Jim |
