* Beauty of the Lady so blue * ~~~~~ Alone she waits in darkness void as most misunderstand her - They say she has no dignity, spit on & reprimand her. But ever quiet, there she sits ignoring all their wrong - Because she knows that deep inside, she's dignified & strong... She's always stood much taller and she's always stood her ground - She believes that somewhere in the void, true fairy-tales are found. Dreams are spun - and love is woven ~ intricate & blue ~ Within this Lady's soul so deep, known unto none, but you. Alas, she waits upon the shelf so fragile, yet so strong - She doesn't hear the words they speak, forgives them - for they're wrong... Judge her not because her laughter helps her overcome great pain - She is waiting for her fairy-tale and there, she will remain. So few believe in fairy-tales or tapestries of love - But this Lady dreams of deepest blue, and weaves with silk thereof... ~~~~~~~~~~~ by LadyFemme April 17, 2000 |

She's always stood much taller and she's always stood her ground - She believes that somewhere in the void, true fairy-tales are found. Dreams are spun - and love is woven ~ intricate & blue ~ Within this Lady's soul so deep, known unto none, but you. Alas, she waits upon the shelf so fragile, yet so strong - She doesn't hear the words they speak, forgives them - for they're wrong... -------------- did anyone ever tell you you look beautiful in blue this is SO excellent Gen...really, perfect speaks of your heart...and this verse... >>Judge her not because her laughter helps her overcome great pain - She is waiting for her fairy-tale and there, she will remain.<< did me in...you wrote my heart here as well... ya know what they say about the tears of a clown... take care my poetic pal, 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 |

Of course I have you Robert! You are family - that's the one thing I know I can count on when friends or lovers fail me...You're one of two people I lean on nowadays for my sanity! LOL I thank you for that. You share 50% of my burdens! Janet Marie - - You snuck in there on me! You know me quite well my dear. I say, we should challenge eachother to a poem titled just that..."Tears of a Clown", for we both know oh too well, what those are, and how they fall. Are you up for it? I know you can do it !!

Femme, keep weaving those fairy tales, for the magic is in the believing, that dreams do come true, even for a Lady of Blue. signed: President of your fan club |

A deep truth is spoken in this poem Femme. Those who wait for perfection are going to be waiting for a very long time. Well done |

Indeed, all facets of "blue" are sewn into this. Quites a seamstress you are. The intricacies of your tapestry continue to amaze me. You know the wonderful thing about writng your own faitytale? - You can make your own happy ending... Michael |

And what's with this whole "self-ostracization" thing, huh? When did we stop loving you??? Hmmm, (I mean besides me troll girl?) You've painted a picture blue, but it need not be the blue of sadness, rather perhaps, the blue of freedom, as unto the sky. |

Hey, you want to write your own fairy tale? Well, then my friend, pick up the pen of life and write away!! Dreams can come true Fairy tales too It all begins with us But first we have to trust Trust ourselves in our heart That's really the hardest part But once the loom is set to weave All we have to do, is just believe. . . "Laugh and the world laughs with you, cry, and just see how many people hand you a Kleenex!" Wonderful poem, Lady Blue. .. ----------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

Danny - LOL @ you being president! Thank you for all your reassurance too, BTW. Mistikman - Not perfection sir, I just know what I want, and I do have patience enough to wait for it. Michael - Yeah....sure...unless a big huge scaley, green dragon comes along, and gobbles up some of the characters, including the prince! LOL Christopher - Just purging sir, in my own "blue" way...I like to say "soul-researching"...and "reassurancing". *curtsies to the T-boy* Sven - I loved your warm addition, you almost made me cry with it! Thank you! WhiteNite - ROFL at you! You're kind of new here, aren't you? 'Tis okay...like I said, I have patience...lots of it. LOL Need a map? Oh, never mind, you're a man. serenity - *curtsies* Thank you so much - that means alot to me, girl. I appreciate all of your replies...an FYI...I've grown tired of worrying about others opinions of me, especially those who don't even care for me. I like who I am, I KNOW who I am, and I know what I want, and I will wait for it, regardless. Such is life! |
