A Time for Us Silently waiting among Orion's arm Pleiades whispers of cloaked desires Giant Betelgeuse guards celestial karma Waxen wings flutter with heart songs Polaris listens to songs from Spica Pleiades sends warming melodies The deep night melts with want Wings dissolve in heated rapture Celestial clock ticks toward infinity Polaris waits for Pleiades tonight The night stretches beyond millenium Tomorrow's symphony sings, a time for us.

Polaris listens to songs from Spica Pleiades sends warming melodies The deep night melts with want Wings dissolve in heated rapture ----------------- Celestial clock ticks toward infinity Polaris waits for Pleiades tonight The night stretches beyond millenium Tomorrow's symphony sings, a time for us. ---------------- WOW...Parker this is exquisite... you MUST be feeling better(smile) and the nite sky in canada MUST be something to behold.This poem surely is. just beautiful Parker-man.  Happy Earth Day my poetic friend, jm Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders And it makes me want to touch you there. And the light in your eyes makes me feel Like there's something much better out there Something kind... And I know someday I might be looking around Trying to find some purpose Well purpose it can't be that hard to find As long as I've got the wind... The wind and your love to carry me. vertical horizon |

And behold the constellation Taurus, for in May 2000, five planets and the sun will align. Predictions of astrologists read that many changes to earth will come. Lovely piece, in response to Icarus, perhaps? (smiling) Corinne |

serenity, star-gazing can be very warming, thank you for replying. netswan, thank you I tried to avoid the dictionary, but I still had to use a star book. Janet Marie, thank you, had a desire to write, something I read nodoubt, still sick though, thanks for asking. Just like where you are we need to be out in the country for a good look. Corinne, perhaps!  I didn't know what month that event was going to take place. Some fear bad changes due to the horrific tidal forces. Lets hope its just an interesting site. Thanks you....... Marina, thank you. Happy Earth Day everyone. Parker |

A Romantic Heart, oh what a tease you are. lol making me wait. Go0fYdUcK, they are just names of stars close to the Orion arm of stars in the sky. Except for Polaris that's the norther star. nothing special just an interest, I learned it when I was in public school for myself. They don't teach much astronomy in school ever. Corinne, just give me some more of your sweet inspiration. Something Irish maybe. Parker |
