The heat of the sun rises with passion as morning dew kisses the earth you should have seen this morning but your heart bled, upon loves hearth ballet of clouds dance happily by you should have seen this morning,bright orchestra of birds, sang out their love their wings in the wind, of dawns light you were crying alone on your pillow Did you hear this morning chime? open your eyes, and see the bluebirds singing a chorus of dawns rhyme you should have seen this morning but robins eyes, a birdbath of tears please stop with loves mourning dry your eyes and listen with your ears A poem is never finished, only abandoned. - Paul Valery (1871-1945) |

you were crying alone on your pillow Did you hear this morning chime? open your eyes, and see the bluebirds singing a chorus of dawns rhyme you should have seen this morning but robins eyes, a birdbath of tears please stop with loves mourning dry your eyes and listen with your ears Beautiful work, Victoria. The imagery was fantastic! Joy Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, Old time is still a-flying, And this same flower that smiles today To-morrow will be dying. -Robert Herrick |

Even during our times of sorrow, nature just keeps on rejoicing and it is our choice if we will join her or not... A very nice reminder. Bob <>< |
