 Cantilevered Moments settled within and between cantilenas and cantillations chanting to me in somber tone most amazing of revelations for a moment of suspension strung from deep vibration came this deep sensation of true love’s unique creation and cantilevered now in thought like a bridge in whirlwind caught of solid support beneath my feet while I stretch outward yet to greet the coming of my golden days knowing that beneath the sway you tether me on cantilevered feet and hold the reach in tender way through the arches hear chanting wind of cantilenas and cantillations send vibration through the string of steel such the way as you make me feel in cantilevered moments Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ [This message has been edited by Sunshine (edited 12-15-2000).] |

Kari, this is utterly inspired, a fantastic and original concept. Oh how I love it when you are flying so high love, absolutely soaring, and doesn't it suit you.  Really fabulous, wonderful writing, Madamoiselle et tu belle, mai que, mon petit, c'est manifique n'est pas, mon cher Kari! About the only thing I can say with a passible french accent! (I can say something else but it'll get me banished to adult) Wonderful work love, you know I love it, right? Take care Majestique Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Wonderful, absolutely metaphorically wonderful!! Is the bridge over Yaquina Bay on the Oregon Coast? It looks like it! If so, then I want to hurry and post a poem that's about to come up from my October 2000 poems. It's about Yaquina Light. Do you live on the Pacific Coast? e-mail [email protected] |

You are writing so much, and so beautifully, I believe this is one of my favorites by you...the title alone is perfection, but the way you walked me through the rest? I'm taking notes, Karilea...and this one goes into the library for future reference and enjoyment. Excellent writing! |

Marsha, I do wish my French teacher had done more than spout off about her African visits and taught us more then tres bien...so I could answer you in kind...merci beaucoup for the wonderful words you grace me with... Virginia I attempted to e-mail you but it was bounced back...looking forward to your piece being posted, and thank you... Mr. Yeats, apparently I have a lot more to say than thank you...so glad you enjoyed... 'Deer, madam of metaphors...humm...and as for coming up with ideas...why, just look around this place...it's teeming!...{~,^} Thank you Ethome, kind words indeed!... Thank you Brian... Serenity, I love intriguing titles...sometimes if I can just think of a title, the rest of the piece grows...and sometimes it doesn't...LOL...thank you!... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Karilea... I often feel that you're a reflection of me... from being called "Sunshine"... to your positive attitude... to your love of metaphor... to your feelings expressed here...  ... and even to the graphic... It looks like the bridge that joins Cape Cod to mainland Massachusetts... Perhaps there's more metaphorical relevance to my life than I ever imagined... This is great, my friend... I love it.. |

Sven, with the imaginations that roam these blue halls, it is not hard to come up with unique ideas...thank you... Kit, many many thanks... Doc, I adore poetic replies, thank you!... Virginia...bookmarking address!...thank you... Nan, as easy as you make it look, I've learned to try hard, think longer, work more at it...and always, always, I imagine you sitting in a large comfortable chair amid books and tablets of papers, scribing away...[and somehow a cat or two lazing around...] You are the mirror that I look in...thank you... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
