a wanderer escaped from night Is it the day that takes my hand, or just a star that glistens? I wonder if the time is right... for morning descends Do dreams come to end in day...to run away? Beyond the margin of the world, clouds that unfurl a smoky grey turn bright from light they borrow Then come tomorrow words can't say that dreams don't come true I found that they do anyway... though day wanna run away from the night unfolding what may seem Lazy morning,wake up...don't close your eyes if the night,if night has gone away If you're yawning,get up...don't be unwise in the light Don't call it just a day A stranger walked the streets alone Calling a home just where I stand to anyone who'll listen I wonder if it's time to land for morning descends Do dreams come to end in day... far from nocturnal play in the light unfolding what it deems? Lazy Morning,wake up from your lullabye if the night,if night has gone away If you're yawning,get up...don't be unwise til the light calls it just a day [This message has been edited by Street Heart (09-07-2002 10:07 PM).] |

Street Heart, these are beautiful, evocative words. i will listen more closely next morning. and try not to be unwise. so many times i have missed the sun rise. looks like we are both new members, though your fine voice shows that you are not new to poetry. i am, and i look forward to hearing more of your work.

You have a wonderful way with words.I enjoyed the way you made me look at things that were taken for granted. I believe happiness lies in the simplest of things. |

Hey,Tracie!Thank you for your welcome.Where did you get those kissing and hugging icons? They made me laugh and then feel all fuzzy inside! It is really nice to be back.Thanks again. Thank you,CHILI (what's your real name,huh?) Thank you for your words.I always try to get a new perspective,try to put myself in someone else's shoes or see through someone else's eyes.I think many times we get so caught up in life that we perhaps lose sight about what is important or what others are going through.I try every day to understand and learn. Peace |

Thanks Marti and Harmony. Really good to hear from you Jamie.I'm glad you're still around. Maree...I can't tell you how good it is to hear from you.I thought you disappeared from Down Under,or something!I started submitting here at the Corner Pub because I saw that Dark Angel was overlooking it.I hoped it was you.How are you?I hope that life is treating you well.Hope to stay in contact...

Greetings, Street Heart! This a beautiful work of artistic expression. The opening line "a wanderer escaped from night" awakens a certain mood deep within me of movement from shadows. I like this question, "Do dreams come to end in day...to run away?" Oft it feels that we are -living dream- with fields, valleys, streams and hills of delightful deja vu. Cordially, Castlehigh of Éire |

 Wow! What happened?! Y'all say the nicest things! It's an old song of mine that I'd written back in '89 or '90.It has 3 key changes in it! More than any other of my songs,I think (insert scratching head smiley here).I'm really glad you liked.One of these days it should be recorded.Much ,GeoffreyIf a man has not discovered something he is willing to die for,his life is not worth living. |
