Waiting She left me a gift at our time of depart Plucked from a harp by the pen of her heart. Words of aroma like a perfumed glove Spun of the gold of the sun of our love. And I sailed on the beauty haunting its ring The grace and the charm that feelings could bring. But the sad of the moment blinded me so That I did not see the ebb of its flow. Now I read each day her rhymes of the lark Each word lites a candle the pierces the dark. It floods the gay halls of our castles of air And turns every memory that ever was there. It has held me in its cradle of chime And rocked me each word to lullaby time. And I wait like a ghost for her to return To join once again in lovers nocturne. There is a door in the heart of each soul That waits for but one to make itself whole. |

Nothing less than beautiful, but even more than that... thank you Sy... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Now I read each day her rhymes of the lark Each word lites a candle the pierces the dark. It floods the gay halls of our castles of air And turns every memory that ever was there. It has held me in its cradle of chime And rocked me each word to lullaby time. And I wait like a ghost for her to return To join once again in lovers nocturne. There is a door in the heart of each soul That waits for but one to make itself whole. ======================= I cant type for smiling ... oh man--this poem is like being kissed by rhyme in the morning sunshine "There is a door in the heart of each soul That waits for but one to make itself whole."

Oh, Seymour~ This reaches out and grabs my heart. 'Now I read each day her rhymes of the lark Each word lites a candle the pierces the dark. It floods the gay halls of our castles of air And turns every memory that ever was there.' Just too, too lovely. She will return to light your heart with joy. *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
