I see the reflections of stars in your eyes Beneath lilac heavens in the Texas skies Strings of wind guitar strums to coyote songs two shadows in moonlight dancing until dawn haunting is the music within the Marfa lights you my Texas cowboy in your cowboy hat of white only sound of spurs upon blanket on the sand jingle jangle music echos to the Rio Grande < !signature--> A poem is never finished, only abandoned. - Paul Valery (1871-1945) [This message has been edited by Victoria (edited 10-13-2000).] |

Good morning Victoria, I can hear that guitar stumming, as I play one myself, or I play at it. Glad I stopped to read your writing. Bill |

Lovely piece. But one question? Cowboys really do it with their boots on? *giggles* |

What a lovely, melodic piece Victoria ... seems Texas is the place to be! Cowboys, guitars, romance, and those spurs ... I enjoyed this! Best wishes, /Kit |

Victoria, like cowboys who don't need to say much, this poem jangled it's way 'cross my brain in sound and verse... I enjoyed it very much! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, then speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
