Into the dim lit, bare walls of my world, You entered, bringing light and life to me, The vivid colors, painted with a swirl Of wit and charm, of personality, With tender care, you added comfort, warmth, And images that line the now bright walls. I look upon them fondly, bringing forth A thankfulness that you walk in these halls With me; our friendship has become a part Of my world now; it has it's special place, Within my being, life, and in my heart, Your name hangs right beside your smiling face. Rememb'ring just how drab these walls had been, I have to thank you for the light, my friend. Kristine P.S. I posted this in CA under an alias to see if I would recieve the same responses as I do using my name...it is my own original writing...I promise. < !signature--> the poet's pen...gives to airy nothing A local habitation and a name ~ Shakespeare [This message has been edited by warmhrt (edited 04-27-2000).] |

Great Lines Kristine!!!! Thoroughly enjoyed the impressionalism! 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 |

Thank you sudir, Cerenity, and especially passing shadows. The fact that someone still takes the time to read and comment on this poem means much to me. Again...thank you. Kris "It is wisdom to know others; It is enlightenment to know one's self" - Lao Tzu |
