For a moment might one take but a moment brief to think of one, and bring relief worrisome matters, they should fade when cast upon, by eyes of jade to think of one, to bring a smile worrisome matters, then gone awhile when cast upon, by eyes of blue this is then what you can do worrisome matters, tears to hide when cast upon, by eyes of brown this is then what goes around when a circle is formed oh so wide when cast upon, by eyes of the world this is then what shall be, that sails unfurled when a circle of hands reach out for you and lift you up, these moments through so for a moment, for a moment brief breathe a soft sigh of relief so that worrisome matters may fall behind when caught up in the circle of humankind ~*~ dedicated to the passionate poets that care for one another Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

This is beautiful...there are just not words to describe how this touched my heart...you seem to do that alot lately... and yes this sums of the family of Passions perfectly and goodness knows if anyone could do that it would be you! Excellent weaving~ The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched ---- they must be felt with the heart~ *??* |

when cast upon, by eyes of the world this is then what shall be, that sails unfurled when a circle of hands reach out for you and lift you up, these moments through so for a moment, for a moment brief breathe a soft sigh of relief so that worrisome matters may fall behind when caught up in the circle of humankind =============== my eyes are brown...what color are yours *smile* .... now whos remarkable? ... besides your muse another one for my sunshine file thank you jm Sprayed across my heart and hers Danced butterflies in the wild This angel, this woman , who loves me with the innocence of a child. ~DeVante~ |

Karilea~ Your eyes shine with compassion. They twinkle with merriment. The eyes of an angel, surely Heaven-sent. Leave it to you, it's not the hue of your eyes that set you apart It's the glow - of Sunshine's bestow that pours forth from your heart. Love you~ ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

So eloquently said, Sunshine. The bond we share here shall never be broken. Well done. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Sunshine-Very lovely poem, even though my eyes are green, I think they would blend in with the rest of the world quite nicely. |

There is just no hiding your compassion and caring nature, Karilea. There is no doubt you would never hesitate to be a friend to anyone in need and anyone would have to be crazy to not be there for you. This poem...and you...are beautiful things. |
