Whimsical Windy Wednesday ~*Marge Tindal*~ Sailing across the lake feeling the sun and the breeze Watching the wind fill the sail Gliding the crest with ease You masterfully navigate the yaw as you are prone to do I feel so at ease just being here with you No sounds to surround us The silence of silence in tow Knowing if the wind stops we just may have to row We'll anchor and enjoy looking in each others eyes Waiting until the breezes billow us with their sighs We'll sit still in the water I'll read poetry to you You will sing soft ballads I will sing them too On the majestic lake cloudless sky above Hearts content in being so very much in love The wind again buffeting The sails catch a breeze Anchor up ! We sail to the shore with ease But ... Oh, this day will float in my memory Until the breezes blow you gently back to me ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Ahh, Marge, what a lovely poem! Any man would be lucky to "set sails" with you! I love the title by the way. Take care, Melissa Honeybee |

WOW! This one set my senses to sailing if nothing else. I too liked "The silence of silence in tow" Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau" |

Oh, it's been so long since I've felt that wonderful feeling ... out on the lake, breeze in my hair, wind at my back! Sigh ... thank you Marge ... you've taken me right there with such beautiful imagery! Best wishes, /Kit |

I don't have the words Marge, just a smile! God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |
