When I look at myself And the gem that I’ve mined Then see bags of treasure Do I feel less refined? I feel that I’m soaring When I’m just left alone You can shine a brighter star I’m content that mine is shone Amass your frilly friends In your tiny universe Gather in the midnight sky Your beauty’s great But it cannot wait It’s dead ‘fore it meets my eye I was feeling a little Less than beautiful Then came my lady and her smile Her eyes twinkle silver stars And mine cut moonbeam gems So I lay down in my treasure pile If there was needed A magic ruby To run the lifeless Robot’s heart She would be The shining glory That gave this life A brand new start Our universe As small as theirs But ever is expanding Love is sharing In growth; in spirit But never to be demanding Look up to the midnight sky I hope you see in your mind’s eye The newest constellation Words that read “I’m beautiful! I’m happy of my creation!” [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (edited 10-19-2000).] |

Yes..yes..This was beautiful. I found that this could be about more than just one thing though. Loved it, Walt!  |

Walt~ Far be it from me to judge beauty or the lack of it ... but I know enough to know a little gem when I see one - 'I was feeling a little Less than beautiful Then came my lady and her smile Her eyes twinkle silver stars And mine cut moonbeam gems So I lay down in my treasure pile' I JUST DID ! !  ~*Marge*~ < !signature--> ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com [This message has been edited by Marge Tindal (edited 10-19-2000).] |
