Sometime, Somewhere Somewhere in the sphere of time Beyond the hour that is mine There is a love awaiting me In echoes of eternity Our paths this time were not the same He has no vision of my name But he is quietly aware That somehow I will meet him there There between the great divide Of heaven and earth, on either side We’ll know at once the presence of The splendor of a destined love Some time in future’s other place We’ll come together face to face Eye to eye and mind to mind Two hearts will know the honored time He patiently awaits for me On other shores beyond the sea In silence of life’s interim I patiently will wait for him Elizabeth Santos |

Wow, this is really good. I am honored to be the first one to respond to this. Nice job and keep up the good work. One touch of nature makes the whole world kin. -William Shakespeare |

"Our paths this time were not the same He has no vision of my name But he is quietly aware That somehow I will meet him there" Oh Liz, this poem struck some hidden chords in my soul. It really touched me. Thank you for posting this.

'lizabeth I liked this much...but somehow, I think most things if not all happen pretty much by chance!!!! } Unless of course Divine intervention is in control. Robert if you can dream; you can fly...if you are flying; you are dreaming. |

Elizabeth, You never responded to this poem so if you missed it i'm sending it here. This poem you wrote is a treasure. Sent upon the wind Twilight layers the azure lie Euphoria spreads the sky. Whispering censure in the breeze Talking to the brooding trees. Standing o'er the forest green Shaking leaves at things unseen Filtering light in wild coquette. Kismet of illusions net. Read the sounds upon the vale Listen close to breaths inhale The symbols hieroglyphic swell The weeping deep within the shell. Twilight plays a subtle mean It speaks of things that are for glean. My heart is full of verse and sign I can but treasure it as mine. Rest well within the gardens scene Forever, rules my mystery queen. Love Sy |

Absolutely exquisite - I can pay you no higher compliment than to say I wish I'd written it myself (genders switched of course) And of course it speaks to and for me. |
