Maybe I Am |

Maybe I Am ~*Marge Tindal*~ Maybe I am soft and romantic. Yet I wonder at the strength in me. I hear the stroke of harps where there are no angels. My mind sees visions I've only dreamed of. My wants are few ... and include you. Maybe I am soft and romantic. Pretending does not hold me in mesmerize. For I feel too much to pretend. I touch the arc of the rainbow in you. Worrying that you will fade with the sun. I cry at the drop of a heart. Maybe I am soft and romantic. I fully comprehend the chances we take. Understanding that a passionate heart can break. I say let it be, if only for a little while. I dream that upon awakening - you will have dreamed of me too. I try to share all that I am. And hope that it is enough. Maybe I am soft and romantic. Then again, maybe I'm a dreamer. But, Oh how I dream. ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com [This message has been edited by Marge Tindal (edited 01-04-2001).] |

From my own POV - there is no compliment given that exceeds "I feel it myself and wish I'd written it myself" - Please accept this in that spirit. |

And maybe I ain't a cowboy.....yeah right. You are the romantic and you are the heart and you are the spirit that makes this home shine. I know this because of the large statue that Ron erected outside the doors to Passions in the likeness of you. Hugging you for this one my friend. |

Maybe you have immense talent and flair - When one needs a friend, you're always there. Maybe you have your own doubts and fears But you lend a shoulder for other folks tears. Passions' cheerleader, your caring heart beams - We all benefit from this dreamer's dreams!! |
