As the Sunlight Gently Rises ~~~  You dance across a shadowed room gentle glow within your eyes Consuming thoughts with soul ablaze spreading sparkle to mornings' rise Your trace ignites internal flame with passion and desire Casting waves of rolling tremble from a touch of burning fire Your heartbeat blends to match my own as the sunlight gently rises And a whispered thought within your arms adds the treasure to your surprises ~~~ [This message has been edited by Rex Allen McCoy (edited 07-17-2000).] |

Rex, Very beautiful poem. I love the rose at the top. Wonderful touch. What a romantic you are. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Your heartbeat blends to match my own as the sunlight gently rises And a whispered thought within your arms adds the treasure to your surprises this piece was so beautiful ...I loved it 10 poets from Australia to Washington State met in VA this spring and one those who couldn't be there sent us each roses...white and yellow for their own special meanings...here is a picture of it..you may use it if you want in the future with your lovely poem  The Gift of A Rose the months turned to weeks and the weeks then to days in anticipation i drove through the haze of an early morn sunshine, as the clouds disappeared and VA was welcoming, in it's warmth, as i neared spent the first day alone as i wandered around and found comfort in southern hospitality found as the others then joined me and a bond then had formed a gift of a rose had been left there, adorned on the desk there before us were yellow and white there was one for each poet mine of maize, soft of light a memento of friendship even though was not there but in spirit, we felt her and in thoughts, as we shared in the poetry readings as tears ebb and flowed and a closeness was felt as we each got to know that inside of us all we're the same, you and I wish to thank you, DollAngel many tears we did cry and the gift of your rose brought warm feelings we knew from the thoughtfulness of one as special as you...

Rex, I've not been around much of late, but I'm so glad to have read this piece. What lovely language you've employed to express this tender time. "Beautiful" comes to mind... ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
