Your Eyes - Your Lips - Your Fingertips ~*Marge Tindal*~ Are you someone I used to know ? You look so familiar to me The corners of your smile bear a slight resemblance I see The green of your eyes shines brightly like those I once adored You look so familiar to me Are you sure we haven't met before ? Your arms are so inviting I feel they've held me tightly You feel so familiar to me A dream that returns to me nightly Your eyes, your lips, your fingertips all have a charm of their own I feel that they belong to someone that I've known Inviting me to again explore a place I think I've been Traipsing the familiar trail you've drawn I find the heart of you, my friend ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Been there before Marge? it mystically seems like that is so... many past thoughts coming back to haunt your memories. Wonderful comparisons you are making here to describe the similarities.......very well done Marge I like the character innuendos through the reflections on the past. Great work Marge!! |

Marge- I found this to be both beautiful and mysterious.....the memories of days of a child and young adult kept popping in and from where you get your inspiration I half expected to see in the end that you were gazing into a mirror...LOL That is meant only as a compliment and not of self adornment though you have many reasons to feel that way. |

ETHome~ Oh, babe ... been there and back ! And then this little muse came back and delivered an extension to this one. Now I've got to figure out what to do with it. Thank you. Sudhir~ I thank you from the heart of this friend. RosePetals~ So glad you let me know. Thank you. Bill~ I do appreciate it. I don't really have a choice or a say in it. They just keep coming and I write. MarkB~ Oh, my goodness - The mystery is that it remains so. No reflections here ... I don't think. But what do I know ? LOL ! Kit~ Maybe deja `vu is what it is. Thanks for the insight. Melissa~ Thanks, honey ! Keeps us guessing, huh ? ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Hi Marge, The thought of someone dear to me comes at the sight of a beautiful flower or the sweet melody of the song bird, or the comfort of a cool summers breeze, the love for someone like you my friend a feeling that comes over and over again, for I may never have seen your smilling face or talked on the phone but the words that your heart produces has left there mark on me, thank you for another wonderful poem my friend. Love, Cerenity "God doesn't have to be reminded that we exist. We have to be reminded that He exist!" (Writer Unknown) |

Are you sure you don't have the "hard hat syndrome"? Well, that's irrelevant. This is one beautiful poem, Marge, and you make it look so easy. Liz |

You amaze me in all that you write. You have such a way of expressing emotions I am sure we have all felt, just can't express. This was a beautifully expressive poem. Another poem enjoyed. Thank You. Jenn E |

I believe you probably have more fun writing than most. It shows in all your poems. Jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil. "Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely". |

Marge MAGIC! I loved this one. The feeling of it is awesome. I really could relate to this as I am sure many others could as well. Your gift continues to shine through time and time again. I sit in awe. Love ya, Amy "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends."

Marge~ I think I've been there before!! This was great my friend. Isn't it amazing how we meet people that we swear we know from somewhere? You just never know. Wonderful writing my friend. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
