Heart of Crystal such is it as she has transparency, most brilliant form likened to diamonds’ norm with exception, see the simplest rejection of heart break, so forlorn as in her inner chi shines this shimmer of light sigh there is not a crystal ball that holds the inner truths so well something once seen, heard like a bell something of life she would tell could she break past the crystal wall could you but hear the call as in her inner chi shines this shimmer of light sigh were you to study crystallography or even her given autography and dispel any and all mystery would you therein find serenity or just her lovesome memory in her heart of crystal beauty as in her inner chi shines this shimmer of light sigh and grown from pure crystallite her charms for you would crystallize a vision of beauty before your eyes and you would wear her light and catch the rainbow of her bright and then you would hear her sigh but in her inner chi shines this shimmer of light sigh Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

This is truly beautiful, beautiful in every sense of the word!!!!!!!! What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life. Walt Whitman |

Kari, applause, kudos, and loud cheers. Whenever I think you must have produced your very best, you present another that is better and so on and so on. Love this one I really do. It is a reflection of your souls beauty, and it truly is. Take care MM Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Your pen has once again dipped into my heart and found the tears that don't often fall as of late...this is beautifully done and the format calls out for it to be read slowly and absorbed...so very delicate and beautiful and yet so sad and fragile...excellent weaving~ [This message has been edited by Butterflies_dont_cry (edited 11-25-2000).] |

Delicate as crystal and strong as tempered glass is the very heart of this poem. Beautiful and a fantastic read. Thank you so much for sharing. |

You have a heart of crystal, so we've all been told, Better than the cardiac organ Of one like mine so cold, Broken, split and cold as ice, Regret has torn it loose, I have but one small beat left, Enough to play the blues. Your poem is done with eloquence, Your thoughts are true to heart, I wish I could relate this way, I'm just not quite this smart. My heart has little feelings left, My mind's one great big blur I wish my heart would beat it's last, and this was my last word. [This message has been edited by Toerag (edited 11-25-2000).] |

Butterflies, you are right, to be read slowly, so that all women would for a moment see themselves... Lovebug, we've all been quite fortunate to find many wonderful words in this vast gallery of poets...thank you... Startime, thank YOU for joining Passions! A warm welcome, and I hope you enjoy many delightful days and nights as you come to read and write... Toe, we love your funny bone...there is no one else like you...but I'm sorry that you're going...through these terrible holiday blues...come and join these your friends, come and be of good cheer...yes these words come easy enough, and they should last throughout the year... Hugs to you, my friend...thank you for reading... Irie, thank you for adding this sparkle... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
