Caught you from the corner of my eye a moment ago, saw an angel sitting there, smiling at something I could not see; something that sparked my jealousy, thinking that it might not be for me. Funny how, after all these years, a little thing like a private smile could pinch my heart the way it did, could make it double-beat, could twist my ire, raise a fire within my chest. We grow together with passing years, we temper fires that used to consume our souls with passionate bliss, we learn to live with each others faults, we share a love, warm and good, comfortable, in our wedded space. Yet, after all these years, I caught you from the corner of my eye, a moment ago, and felt the passions fire. w. james beard, jr. © December 2000 [This message has been edited by jwesley (edited 12-18-2000).] |

Loved it, absolutely loved it, just like a real conversation in poetry form! "If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you." Winnie the Pooh |

JWesley~ A wonderful smolder to that fire, I'd say. Beautifully done with a delicacy of delight. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

James, Love it when you write from your heart. this was a beauty. Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
