Worth the Wait I await that first snowfall, softness that slowly licks my cheeks leaving it's moisture behind, making them rosey to your eyes, Changing my paleness, the frail look that has overtaken me, from sick of heart, to a colourful glow, giving me some joy to look forward to. Once I walked hand in hand, leaving prints behind, for those to see I shared a love, a fantasyland of dreams come true. This time when I walk, there will only be one set of prints, no gloved hand to warm mine, and the winds shall cover my steps, leaving no trace of me. I shall walk each step, looking ahead watching for your prints, long stretches between, noticing your stride, clinging (though only slightly) to the dreams I hold of you in my mind. There will come a time, when I shall catch up to you and you will be free as the fresh fallen snow, to be swept away in my love... and then you too, shall know. ~Wynter's Wait "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |

Wynter, this is lovely... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, then speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Glad to see you are feeling better, as I can read the change in this poem, a change of hope and a look towards the future, I told you it was just ahead, so keep going, one step at a time. Beautiful words to live by. Tossing words like wishful coins into the deep well of an open heart. R. fox |

~V~...I wish we had that snow, but I do believe we are in for a heavy dose of rain, my pounding head is telling me that much and so this may be the last reply for a few hours until it begins and the pressure releases me. Will catch you later, sent you an icq but you were n/a {{{huggzz}} til then. ~Wynter (sighs) "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |
