my feet carried my heart down a path I'd not traversed before the air carried a scent, wild and free I knew not what it foretold or what I should find if my course continued so the sky cracked with thunder's ire the earth shook to it's very core the seas creatures gave rise to their haunting refrain as rocks and trees, mountains and waters all chorused in a melodic chime the winds spake your name to my heart before my mind e'er knew it's exsistence my lips longed for the sweet fruit of your kiss though my eyes had ne'er drowned in the tides of yours the breeze whispered your love to me on the currents of an unknown sky "A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing"...George Bernard Shaw [This message has been edited by X Angel (edited 09-15-2000).] |

Heather - Tell me it ain't so - tell me this poem isn't for Toerag - please - my whole well being depends on this - tell me that scalawag hasn't gotten to you, too! Please.... I like your poem. |

'Deer - Yeah, I see very well. Lessee, you live on the east coast of southern Florida, Heather lives in northern Oregon... yep, that's just about right - your "scent" can be picked up all the way out in Oregon! Have you thought about taking more frequent baths? lol |

I like this a lot. I had visions of riding a horse along the beach with the wind and salt water in the air... very nice writing! Deb |

I like this very much! *S* And of course, I'm ROFL @ Balladeer and LJA... even if they did rather destroy the mood the poem set. *G* ("Fruity" lips, Deer one? *G* Been in that produce section again, hunh? LOL) |

the seas creatures gave rise to their haunting refrain as rocks and trees, mountains and waters all chorused in a melodic chime Phew beautiful poem, ah sigh, a very tender piece has brought my thoughts back to someone very special... thank you The softest thing in the world Will overcome the hardest.Non-being can enter where there is no space".
