Through his eye we experience ...the mysteries of love The beauty of womanhood, the passion of romance the unending joy of life with wonder, as a child in things seen and heard and the miracle is through him we become as children filled with passion joy glory in sights unseen Through his eye we explore a wondrous world He leads patiently to places we have never been to look to smell to hear his world of magick and the wonder is we travel with his words to a gentler time a softer place where romance blooms in wonder. Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant - Thoreau |

Kethry, your words are the paints which colour these pages with love. This is such a wonderful amazing write from you, brilliant. And this is a fantastic portrait you have painted, and I love it as always. Take care Slushy Mushy  Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Mr. Yeats' urban travels through word lend credence to the gaiety, and travails, of City Life...I always picture him on the concrete, looking West...I look East...and thoughts meet on the wind... this is good Kethry... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

ethome, yes it's a picture of Wil and he makes it perfect. Marsha, I see him painted in the sunsets.(But then I'm hallucinating )Sunshine, He has the most powerful whisper on the wind I've ever heard, so glad you hear it too.

you have captured Wil's poetic essence well his poetry is very romanntic and sincere and his style is pure class great write Keth ... your insight is 20/20 I looked into the sky for my anthem The words and music came through But words and music can never touch the beauty that I've seen Looking into you |
