Come to me Come to me when autumn chills Blow o’er the stark and jagged hills When wayward path’s obscurity Becomes too dark, please come to me When ocean storm and perilous wave Destroy your dreams and all you gave Whenever you are lost at sea Turn ‘round the keel and come to me Please come to me when winter frost Makes icy ghosts of dreams you lost When glimmering white shines endlessly Upon your sorrow, come to me If ever your heart is void of love And peace is all your dreaming of Then tread a path that’s homeward bound And I will turn your life around When moon glows on the ocean’s crest And you are weary of unrest Then follow the stars, and I will be Waiting for you to come to me If you get caught in life’s cruel ways And can’t escape the tangled maze If you believe our love is true Just call my name, I’ll come to you Elizabeth Santos |

Sudhir, Do I hear you calling my name? You've got me laughing and it's not even 8AM yet. Good work, Sudhir. Now I need a dictionary to find out what "fait a peindre" means. But I'll take it as a compliment This is the best review I've ever had Thank you, my friend Liz |

Oh Liz ... I'm so glad I got a few moments to read in Open this morning ... between you and Bonnie, I'm feeling much more peaceful to begin the day. This was perfectly beautiful ... I echo all of Sudhir's incredible comments!  Best wishes, /Kit |

He'd come to you if he could There is no doubt I'm sure he would. You've touched him with this epopee In conscious dream and revelry. Love Sy |

Marge, I'd settle for "Hi!". But Sudhir does have a few words up his sleeve.doesn't he? Or else a thesaurus. But I doubt if he ever needs a thesaurus. Thanks, Marge, for the beautiful Kit, Thank you, dear. I'm glad you liked it Ellie, Your comments are most eloquent Sy, I'm glad you were touched Martie, No words are needed. But thanks for reading and I'm glad you liked it Denise. Thanks and hope to see you soon, Claire, Thank you for your sweet comments Coco, I really appreciate your remarks Paula, You make me smile. Thank you Liz |

Liz, you are definitely on the ball with this one, as always. I enjoyed reading this, it truly hit home. Your poesy strikes me with good flow, rhyming lines, and excellent imagery that makes me want to cry because I feel the movement in this one much more so than usual. Thanks for sharing! |
