~Winds Of Change~ Poetic winds blow ... now sweetly swept away, carry me to the place in you ... so that I might stay. Safe passage to your harbors ... sail across your seas, breathe in all your pleasures ... set my spirit free. Poetic winds blow ... gentle breezes take my will, carry me to the place in you ... where time stands still. Take me so far away ... to discover your beaches of sand, under your starry skies ... I rise up ... heart in my hand. Poetic winds blow ... quietly taken into the night, carry me to the place in you ... warmed by desires light. Baptize me in your mystical waters ... sun dry me on your shores, caress me with your winds of change ... allow my heart to soar. Poetic winds blow ... lift me up ... now Heaven bound, carry me to the place in you ... where contentment is found. Fly with me in twilight skies ... painted in hues by the setting sun, as we fly free towards the rising moon ... two souls become one. Janet Marie ***** ** I know I just reposted this in open for my 3000th post so many of you just saw it, but it's my personal fav and the one I felt I should submit. I hope your not sick of seeing it.  thanks jm |

How could one ever get tired of such beauty? A phenomenal piece of work and it deserves to be seen a lot! *Krista Knutson* "Cherish your vision; Cherish your ideals; Cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts. If you remain true to them, your world will at last be built." ~James Allen~ "We've made houses for hatred...it's time we made a place where people's souls may be seen and made safe"...~Jewel~ |

This poem never fails to put a smile on my face and fill me with warmth and joy.The words flow of the screen in gentle whispers and form images that are tender and pure. Absolutely wonderful, a pleasure as always to read. ------------------------ "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting." E.E Cummings. "Art is a lie which makes us realise the truth." Pablo Picasso "We Irish are too poetical to be poets, we are a nation of brilliant failures" Oscar Wilde ----- |

Dear Jan ; How can anyone be tired of such incredible beauty? Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. ellie LeJeune |

That was a beautiful poem. I'm glad you submitted it! I haven't seen it in open yet, but there is no way anybody can be tired of it. Wonderful poem. "Even a fool knows you can't touch the stars, but it doesn't stop a wise man from trying." Harry Anderson, "Night Court" *Cassandra Roseen* |

Very lovely, I love your word usage and imagary!! I agree with the above, WONDERFUL POETRY!!!!
