Waning moon like scimitar cutting at the dark shards of light shining afar uplifting Heaven's ark And night creeps by like dragon's smoke until the time that it will stroke the time for morning to awake in darkness till the dawning break Fading soon the eyeing eve watching Earth revolve Spying till the stars must leave no mystery to solve And night creeps by with raging ease escaping land and tempting seas for Waning Moon still holds the keys to tidal ebb and flowing breeze ( the moon is not made up of cheese ! ) ...looking at the stars 4/13/88 |

sounds like something I wrote a long time ago. But much much better. Jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil. "Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely". |

Thanks to you, Dark Angel. There seems to be quite a brightness about you for one who has a such a "dark" name. Angels come in many forms. I will email you. Sorry, I really don't know what a icq3 is. Geoffrey |

Thank you Prometheus, for such a compliment. I'm gonna search you're works out there Geoffrey Thanks Eloise. It is not often that I see that name. Do you know they have a spirit in the Plaza Hotel in New York ? No relation... right ? Just kidding. Thank you for your words Geoffrey |

Eloise, forgot to mention that the spirit's name is also eloise, I believe. just wanted to insert there. You probably figured that out anyway. Peace |
