Lilac Dreams < !signature-->By Amy M. Kennedy The day is coming to an end...the sun is setting low A field of lilacs surrounds me as the wind softly blows Your image comes softly to me, an angel's face And I can feel the powerfulness of your beauty, your never-ending grace Whether you are in my dreams or my reality I want you always and forever, for an eternity Skies turning different colors, pink, red, yellow, and blue Watching as your plane is about to take off, temporarily seperating me and you Birds singing as the trees begin to sway And I am wishing with an intense burning that I could save this day Memories play back through my mind, and it brings a smile to my lips As I think about when you and I shared that first magical kiss The plane takes off into the sky Tears slowly fall down my cheeks as I wave goodbye I'll hold you close to my heart until we can be together once more I love you today and always, with all that I am...our love will fly with the angels...together we will soar "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends." [This message has been edited by Aimster (edited 05-31-2000).] |

Amy* This is filled with the scent of saddness and heart touching beauty. Lilacs are my Favorite so you touched on my heart with this one...and after reading it through you touched very deeply. **Hugs** to you Miss Amy! ~Butterflies are meant to be free~ (a gift from my S.S.) |

Amy, Why did you let this person get on that plane??? I would have tracked him down and handcuffed him to my hip. LOL I love your expression in this piece, its very sentimental. you must share alot of memories with this person that you love. hope it works out for you. Laura |

Amy~ So tenderly done that I felt myself waving goodbye with your heart. Hey .... remember they sell round-trip tickets ! This was truly a lovely flight on the wings of a loving heart. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Wanted to tell you guys thanks very much for posting such high encouragement and lovely responses. this was a very hard poem for me to post as it is filled with much sadness...but i also have to say it is my favorite poem written by me as of yet. take care! amy "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends." "Fate exists but it can only take you so far, Because once you're there It's up to you to make it happen." |

It just made me want to cry! It brought back memories of friends and loved ones that I let slip away. Very touching. |
