the one from 1942, the page was ripped, no "I love you" to be found, profound the grief, no relief, in sigh Oh God, the fright of young life heartbroken wife fast forward to today progeny lived on to a faster day faster ways but regret still comes circumspect and missing pages are still fast loathsome acts a missing page "you are not here with me" on the wrong page I see no longer can I read your mind old tapes lay in need of rewind never mind go forward one more day don't find a way to play but rather see in new sunrise the last reprise of a missing page now act my age become sage wise I would be understood missing pages you won't write make things once again tight once again back to when the time was I loved you now, no clues in how to feel ~ life's unreal ~ missing pages I missed you when you went dry left no clue how things had changed became rearranged and for now no soul in heart just folks apart living as two me - then - you but no duo to be left to see the missing pages < !signature--> Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ [This message has been edited by Sunshine (edited 11-23-2000).] |

This is wonderful....I read it twice so I could take it all in what you were saying. Great piece of work, Sunshine!  Sauni Sauni :) Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps |

Sunshine... I always find myself at a loss for words when I enjoy a piece so wonderful as this one. May a new page be added, though not to replace the missing page...... Speaking of pages, this one will be "bookmarked" in my library! ~Sheri "The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by those who got there first" |

Well you've done it again today...took my breath away and brought tears of understanding to my eyes...I just don't have the "right" words to convey how this piece touched me...I wish I did...perhaps when it doesn't hurt so much to understand it so well I'll come back to it and try again...Thank you for sharing your gift of weave...just know that today you have touched someone with what you wove~ You cannot dance in the sun until you have cried in the rain~ |

Sunshine I think everyone has a few missing pages in their lifetime....a few I know of in my case came right out of the end of the book, where the whole story was beginning to take shape for the conclusion...oh well we just keep on keepin on even though there's a few missing pages.. I love the idea of this and how you brought it to the reader's mind... good stuff!!...ethome...... |
