The Emerald Sea Along silvering shores of far emerald sea waves fluid and flawless spray their jewels upon thee In the heart's silent stirrings I will breathe, and fly free o'er the sorrows of night's fallen reaches Could there be such a place as that emerald sea? where the nightmuse can linger in love, languidly As the soul of another holds her heart tenderly and to dusk's shared horizon beseeches Now as golden stroked skies draw her gaze upwardly she queries the night with this questioning plea Is there more than this fragrance and fond memory to our sea's sweeping emerald beaches?

Wow, what imagery Meadowmuse! You continue to be near the top of my list of favorite poets. This one, just like so many others, struck me with it's stunning beauty. You have marvelous talent. < !signature--> *Krista Knutson* "Every moment marked with apparitions of your soul...." ~*Sarah McLachlan- Do What You Have To Do*~ [This message has been edited by Alwye (edited 02-16-2000).] |

Just wonderful. Can't say much more about it than that. There just aren't enough words to describe. Chris |
