A Saving Grace in distant past, in the long of ago the summer sun came to kiss, see grow purple grape entwined the vine beautifully and fully so thick the harvest grape did grow but came the night upon which frost in the night of fall harvest grape to be lost to all the great sound of thunder's gun all valley children came on the run came to save the grape of wise seeking sunrise seeking warmth of sun hours before it would come smoke pots burned saw heat rise skyward then the miracle came the prodigy was heard in the soft, soft wing of butterfly grace in gossamer, all took wing, then slowly, slowly offering the rise and fall of soft wing spread to bring the warmth of smoke pot heat down to the low of the grape root feet this, then the action of sweet love graced by butterfly wings the grove of grape, saved by grace softened by smiles of angels' face cross a cloud's great landscape come with me and tarry here and climb the cloud and hear the voice of grace sing clear Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Kari love, I remember this one, this is the one that I did my C A on. Isn't this the one I said what's there to criticize!! It is indeed a gem, excellant of form and a delight to read. It has a flow that's perfect and is a wonderful example of your artistry. Worthy of much flag waving and cheers of encore and bravisimi. Beautiful love as always, I love it also as always. Take care kid  Majestic Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Kari, Splendiferous write. Sis you did good! Write on, write long. Kethry Religion is for people frightened about going to hell - Spirituality is for people who have been there. Anon. |

Tracie love, thank you...your enthusiasm is showing... Marsha, I must admit I did do some tweaking...but I don't know that I like it any better for the adjustment...ah well...but thank you dear, and be well over the Christmas holiday... Kethry, you're pretty splendiforous yourself...thank you... Ethome, I certainly hope I can do that...the holiday doldrums are certainly hitting a number of folk...Happy Holidays! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
