On Seeking Happiness What is happiness? But that which fills our hearts with joy and sorrow in the sharing of life's reflections. Under a see-you canopy of stars, Does not love rest below silken skies, upon petals of softness, touching, surrounding two, in a gentle myst to sweetly scent that of each morn? Is happiness not only when the light breaks into our hearts to shine treasures of gold throughout our day, But also when the indigo of night blankets us in darkness, masking our dreams in the wishes of real? Or might not it be happiness in real scenting our dreams, singing to us in the silence of the night? It is there for you, it dwells in your heart, dances in your thoughts, covering your naked fears, tenderly waiting for you to break free from that which harnesses you from fulfillment. ~Wynter < !signature--> "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (edited 11-10-2000).] |

beautiful freeflowing words that comfortably wrap themselves around the reader. I especially love the phrase "see-you canopy". Being a night owl, I also like the contrast here between light and dark. Very well done. - Jeff |

Charisma- thank you so much for all your responses SEA- a friend and poet convinced me to read THE PROPHET by Kahlil Gibran, I bought it but you can read on line...(cheaper that way) and after reading it and reading my friends poem On Sadness, elsewhere, these thoughts came to mind..only I couldn't form that properly until I decided on steps. Just in a creative soft mood today. {{huggzz}} to you both. ~Wynter Bliss The Prophet on line http://antonia.webhost.cl/~ekaftan/gibran/gibran.html < !signature--> "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (edited 11-10-2000).] |

I thought the line breaks made this all the more beautiful. "When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass, and the sun drips honey."" Laurie Lee Kathleen |
