I’ll Meet You in the Winds How shall I ever swiftly bring My heart to be enjoined with yours I cannot mount an angel wing And soar the space to distant shores What shall I do when words suggest Enchanting notions from afar I cannot cling to eagle’s breast And fly the course by evening star What can I say when you impart Radiant words my heart consumes Shall I refuse a meadowlark The serenade of love's sweet tunes What shall I do when lovers dream Of an impossible rendezvous I cannot catch a moonlight stream And swing on threads of light to you I have no wing to navigate The lovely blueness of the sky I cannot beg a moonbeam’s grace To carry me to love afar I’ll climb the hill in summer’s air You stand upon the ocean shore I’ll meet you in the winds of dare And love you there forever more Elizabeth Santos [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (edited 04-13-2000).] |

Simply wonderful Liz... all this talk lately of wind and such is making me want to go skydiving again. =) "The storm rises up when the shadows descend every beat of my heart every day without end I will stand like a rock I will bend till I break till theres no more to give if thats what it takes I will risk everything I will fight I will bleed I will lay down my life if thats what you need every second I live thats the promise I make" I have no idea who wrote this... tell me if you know. =) |

Elizabeth, very poetic. Another wonderful piece from your talented pen. A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

Elizabeth, Lovely is not a strong enough word to describe the beauty in this poem. I must agree with denise that this is breathtaking. I’ll climb the hill in summer’s air You stand upon the ocean shore I’ll meet you in the winds of dare And love you there forever more These words say it all. ~you reached inside, you touched my heart, and I am all the better for it~ Terry A. Woodson, Jr. |
