Serenity's Passions Plea (#2000) |

Entranced, I sought the golden spike. A meadowmuse, sang songs I liked. A darkened Prince, held bloody pen-- a beckoning-- I wandered in. I spied a Dove, White wings of love, and squirrel of black, stood guard my back, A butterfly, with sorrow's eyes, another sighed, but would not cry. Beneath a tree, sat Cherokee, arranging sands of poetry, as wisdom's words, I gently heard: "Becalm your fears," urged Balladeer. Rex Allen wrote in ink of smile-- he walked with me, the night's long mile. Walt, he always made me think-- sipping cup of laughter's drink. Lord Christopher (enchanted her) his eyes so like the sky... Martie, dee, and PdV wiped tears from my heart's eye, as owl hooted sweetest dirge, I pondered love, and every word. I saved them all, to save my soul-- every verse more dear than gold. And even though I came to play, if Ron won't mind, may I please stay? *Even though you may not find yourself in this--know that this rest is written in my heart...thanks to you all... |

I hear your plea for poetic dignity yes this place ... 'tis our saving grace by our words we're all bound soulmates, and twins found inspiration, gods gift poetic ashes we sift quiet comfort in dark of night poetic contentment's guiding light poets pen and heart in hand words of love and loss we all understand poetic tears for all to cry hear my words, my whispered sigh i hear your songs, i feel your plea, kiss sweet fate, dance with destiny ride the wind, steal the moon, mornings light returning soon looking south, me twin I see blowing kisses to my sweet serenity me loves ya me sweet twin of my heart... heres to 2000 more... *raising mug of raspberry tea* *winkie winkie* me < !signature--> There are places inside our souls - that have never been touched. There are places inside our hearts - that need to be loved this much. ~jm~ [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (edited 08-07-2000).] |

and what fun it has been! Thank you, all of your kind replies have moved me greatly. I'd never shown anybody what I'd written before, and you all made it easy with your warm support and encouragement. I'd like to especially thank Rich, (spiked) for directing me here at a time in my life when depression was overwhelming me--I'm so much better for the joy of Passions company. Thanks to all once again. |
