Of Remembered Curlicues ~*Marge Tindal*~ I reach within the well of me dip my quill in ink of sage penning thoughts calligraphic upon the barren page As if on cue, the curlicues stroked with ease and grace magically begin to appear as thoughts are artfully traced I step back from the easel gazing in amaze The render tendered says to me another time - another place A thought-o-graph has presented another's smile of revealing grace Have I penned another's heart from some other time and place I wonder ... ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

I really like this Marge...... "A thought-o-graph has presented another's smile of revealing grace Have I penned another's heart from some other time and place." That is so pure and poetic and I love the idea of the whole piece..well done as usual Marge!!! |

Often I feel the pull to a time and places never lived and my pen relects them. I also wonder. Maybe I did not drink long enough from the River Lethe at the end of those past lives. If a dream touches us, it exists to us as anything else that touches us. John |

ETHome~ I appreciate you, my friend. Thank you for understanding. Marsha~ Thanks for the elegant. That is just exactly the way she comes to me. JohnR~ I am also drawn to several places of the past. I find the ink in my well ... and it commands me write. Wynter~ I thank you for that. If a title can pull you in - then half of my pleasure is done. JanetMarie~ As you well know, the muses in my life are numerous. Each one uniquely different. All I need do - is listen and I'm there. Thank you always for your replies. Paula~ Thank you. Yes, strong feelings of the past draw me back to where I was and enlighten me as to where I am, or should be. Seymour~ Thank you, poet. 'Imagination is of three kinds: joined with belief of that which is to come, joined with memory of that which is past, and of things present, or as if they were present. --Bacon.' What a wonderful gift we are given to share. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

In response to the query, indeed you have...oft times I think..."I wish I had written that"...or "where's my muse? O! Over there on Marge's shoulder!" And this, my dear friend, is a keeper.... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

I don't where you get all your ideas...you have this magical way of making something wonderful out of something simple... I love that... I love the time and in between the calm inside me in the space where I can breathe... Sarah McLachlan |

Marge, Let me take this reply to tell you how much I admire and appreciate you. I read somewhere and I don't know who said it, that everything we write is an original, unique thought and has never been written before and probably never again. I just wanted to share that with you and wish you and yours a Merry Christmas. "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."

I personally think that maybe you have been blessed with a part of all our lives because you could be intrusted to take such good care of the gift. How else could you possible see life as deep and beautiful as you do. You are one of the angels among us for sure my friend and I for one am thankful for all the times I find you on my shoulder. A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. author unknown |
