The Storm and the Ocean "Senryu's" Thunder Storms were then, Though now the spatters seem thin, Still they flood my heart. Unrelenting waves, Pounding mountains into sand, Love still in the grains. James Parker Haley Sept 19, 2000. [This message has been edited by Haleyja (edited 09-19-2000).] |

Parker, I loved every single word. Perfectly Pleasing! I like how you think.....and how you have said so much with so few words. I love all the sides you behold as a poet as well as your "uniquness" (I am not sure if that is a word...lol)......Take Care  Jenn E |

sincere and honest emotions here p-man... I think I know where these come from ... if we can look back without regret and remember the lessons learned ... we can let go of the losses and hold on to the memories. Love the metaphors you used in these little gems of poetry. but then I love when ever you do multiples  later-sweet-senyru-gator me ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ Looking back in time Memories etched in our minds Engraved on our hearts ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ |

WOW..parker, youve said so much in such a small space.. "though now the spatters seem thin..." "pounding mountains into sand..." time makes the big things seem less big aye..and in the end we find that love was there somewhere..perhaps still is.. absolutely wonderful, parker..loved every word hugs, dg< !signature--> "i'm growin'/ i dont like it/ i'm growin' and it hurts/ i love you/ but i'm tired/ i guess i've got a lot to learn..." -w. watson [This message has been edited by dgvarner (edited 09-20-2000).] |
