This Pane of Glass The pane I look out from this chair of words echoes the sunlit leaf in dust crusted glitter The dark shadow sways a winter glass dancer and entrancing grace of substance growing leaf of splendor just beyond greenly gamely plays the wind You are locked in rhythm yet do not touch you are separate yet alone Which is less or more of real in this vision my heart is touched by both one is like a blossom the other like a dream In heart this pain of glass is sharp This love of true and forever can still be free embrace is such circumference that the heart can’t measure this shadow that touches the crack I left open for expansion in life long quest Oh shadow you inhabit my core add dimension to my vision you must lay with me in this confusion that opens me to hesitation when all I want is to see My heart is glass and pain is not diaphanous its shattering is silent opening lets all the fragile chambers cry [This message has been edited by Martie (edited 08-01-2000).] |

Martie~ 'Oh shadow you inhabit my core add dimension to my vision you must lay with me in this confusion that opens me to hesitation when all I want is to see' You are definitely multi-dimensional, my friend. I enjoyed this look at the pain through the pane. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

There is so much here, Martie, love the imagery of the glass--the invisible separation--the yearning in this is as evident as finger marks on the glass...and I guess you figured out by now that I really loved this beauty... |

~Martie,...thank you for letting me peek in. Mmm, I love how this fell onto me, (though it tugs at me now with the contents). It's nice to see you here,...it's nice to read you again. You have beauty in your mind. Be well M. *Peace. [This message has been edited by SpitFire (edited 07-31-2000).] |

Oh shadow you inhabit my core add dimension to my vision you must lay with me in this confusion that opens me to hesitation when all I want is to see My heart is glass and pain is not diaphanous its shattering is silent opening lets all the fragile chambers cry ...... The pane of glass is clear in its showing of pain, Martie... regards, sudhir |
