(just playing around) Love is a Mighty Thing Love is a mighty thing to its arrow she is tethered yearning for its mad embrace stakes her to her dream’s desire yearning for its mad embrace molds her movement through a day she would gladly trip and fall unto the path that true love takes she would gladly trip and fall and cross the mighty sunlit gorge to reach its heather and its stream molds her movement through a day To reach its heather and its stream and climb the mountain of desire to hear the call of whippoorwill under the tree in morning’s still to hear the call of whippoorwill she would gladly trip and fall mold her movement through the day for in its arrow she is tethered To climb the mountain of desire yearning for its mad embrace under the tree of morning’s still love is a mighty thing |

Martie, Your putting us all to shame here. There must be a name for the verse, or did you invent the pattern of this verse, I am clueless and could never do it Marvelous, Martie [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (edited 07-13-2000).] |

Martie ... For just playing around, you've put together some great structure in this piece ... Worth going through the board again ... I love little snipets that keep bring one back to the thrust of a piece ... Nice work ... |
