Let me be I won't dwell in the would have been if I can save the where and when I should dwell perhaps a little while but my spirit only finds the smiles I could see the hurt of me the pain gone through but then I'd sue the heart of me for the unhappy I would know so I will not for what would this find ~ peace of mind? I think not ~ I shall always be the sort of winsome kin of me that finds wherein the heart of me a soft touch doesn't know much but I can be a source of light if I might if you'll let me be Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Kari love, i did reply to this I really did but it's not there. And I've been as good as gold all afternoon, I've cleared most of the stuff that should have been done by 5 pm yesterday. (Well you know what I'm like with deadlines! I can't stick to them at all) Anyway I'm having a break and dropped in and it's not there. So since it's definitely not there I'll say it all over again. This is an absolutely beautiful and exquisite piece from you, you never fail to light up these pages love. Truly wonderful. Take care love Majestic Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

You take something that could negative and turn into a positive...and a lovely poem... I believe I need to adjust my approach to life... thank you for enlightening me... I love the time and in between the calm inside me in the space where I can breathe... Sarah McLachlan |

Breathe...perhaps I do this because I was given zero percent chance of being born...literally... and attitude adjustments are always healthy for us... I am glad you liked this... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

I love your free verse....you are an inspiration to me. "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 |

Beautiful Karilea ... I really enjoyed your thoughts in this, and what a wonderful flow. I had to read it aloud just to appreciate it all the more! Best wishes, /Kit |

I had such a lump in my throat after I read this - I almost could not breathe - The praise you've already received from those above me in this string of replies seems totally inadequate - as is what I'm trying to say now. Words like 'exquisite' and 'most beautiful' simply fail. (I'd better shut up - lest my words be misconstrued) |

Irish, what a lovely compliment, thank you... Kit, I'm reading aloud more myself...adds something doesn't it...?...stay well... Mr. Yeats, who could ever misconstrue honesty? I blush...and thank you... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Sunshine, I could let you be anything...for it would always be wonderful. Kethry Religion is for people frightened about going to hell - Spirituality is for people who have been there. Anon. |

Must agree with Kethry, but mostly I'd like you to be just you...that in itself, is far more than enough. jwesley |

Kari love, Wilfred is right you know, exquisite doesn't do it justice, but then sheer beauty wouldn't either. (Having another break, I had yesterday off love, what more could I ask for! Well, since I have next door to minus zero chance of having what I want I'll work isn't it supposed to be good for you love!) Anyway I have New Years Eve and New Years Day off, talk about spoilt All I can think of to say is this is a wonderful as your heart, as brilliant as the sunshine for which is your nom de plume, and as precious as love. Take care love Majestic Mushy Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
