Stay with me As darkness falls …night closes in the dawn comes too quickly you must go this I know but stay… Tingling skin …a desire to begin A memory 'ere you go comes the dawn you are gone but for this time pretend you are mine and stay.

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

It would make a lovely song....and actually it does make one As always, I come away feeling the joy of experiencing the beauty of your work Pepper "I honor the place in you, that when you are in that place, and I am in that place in me, we are in the same place" Ram Dass |

Sandra, thank you. It's always a pleasure reading what you write both in your poetry and in your encouragement. It just flows. Wayoutwalt, thank you for putting those particular words in my head. Now I'm going to have to write something else to get them out. Highlander, thanks for the comment about tuneful, although if you heard me sing you wouldn't say that. I sing like a troll. Butterflies, as always thanks. Coco, thanks for the poem I enjoyed it so mush. Roniece, I'll take any smiles and hugs I can get. Thank you for giving me one. Pepper, your encouragement is all I need. Thank you Be well Kethry Growth demands a temporary surrender of security. Gail Sheehy |
