If there were but one drop of dew in rainbow field of sparkling hue, on hands and knees, beyond Pride's yield-- Know you, now--I would find you. I do not care for wishes, grant... However, sweet, is sweet romance... Bodies--all, they pass away. Forever--I have felt this way. You remain connecting piece to puzzle of eternity. My heart is but a sacrifice; and if I could, I'd offer twice-- "Receive this blade," the virgin prayed, "for nothing else, will now suffice..." |

WOW, this one is splendid. What a wonderful caricature of a gift that is sacrifice! Expressed wonderfully well, serenity regards, sudhir Take each day as it comes, Consider each day as a flight, Try hard to succeed and fly, Surely then you will reach some height. But if by some chance you don’t, Remember that tomorrow will always come. Learn this well and learn this hard That today’s efforts will pay for tomorrow’s fun. A Crazy Monster, a.k.a Ski |

Recieve this blade... and a piercing blow it is! Delivered right from your words into my heart. You sure said a mouthful in a few words here! I'm not sure I even grasped all the nuances of this here poem, but I know that what I did catch blew me away! My, my, my you have a way! |
