Ocean Memories When one smells the salt on the air and the salted kiss is left behind and all that is left is one, alone, one may cry silent salted tears Karilea When you want to be loved, look within...KRJ |

Hi Sunshine... This was sad, but so very beautiful in it's own sadness..... I ditto all the replies above me..... Life is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

Karilea You dunnit AGAIN ... and here I ramble again ... lingering reminders of yesterday's salted tastes a simple kiss an innocent kiss souls flew high, fluttered by new-born wings eyes died into the depths of one another postcarded emotions of salinated memories emote remnant thoughts of existence alone remote solitary drop of water alienated from the ocean a t e a r d r o p . . . |

WhtDove--hence the term salted wounds----wounds that have already had salt rubbed into them [This message has been edited by Prometheus (edited 08-11-2000).] |

Karilea-You just leave me in awe everyday. You are gifted with a talent that shines in all your brilliance. Wonderful emotions cresting the shores today. Lovely verse as sad as it is. Looks like you inspire Sudhir as well.LOL |

If I had read this truly beautiful poem before I posted "What's Wrong..."- I probably wouldn't have posted it at all |
