when there’s just no reaching the inconsolable heart, look to the dawn; don’t spend lifetimes looking for answers... turn your eyes to the sky-- there you will find hope abundant. when the present situation seems insurmountable, fix your gaze on the heavens... the wondrous splendor of the stars; the glistening comfort of the moon... let the cares of the day diminish with the setting of the sun. move with the flow of the gentle spring breeze... lose yourself in the serenity of this evening. you see...there’s solace in this night; in the sound of silence you’ll find release. let your heart go...it will find its way back to you; follow the way of the waves... fly free like seagulls over the water. sing aloud of your freedom, and morning will bring that quiet of heart you so desire. -kh 02/05/01 ...if I ride these dreams to the Irish Sea, oh, even there, I know your heart rides with me... |

I blow a kiss to you, before I retreat to my bed.. sweet dreams Will you give me yourself? Will you come travel with me? Shall we stick by each other as long as we live? -Walt Whitman |

Hey..........teacher is proud and issuing a "A+" for this one. Dang girl....you make a good student of imagery. Beautiful use of your lessons here and now let's see more. Maybe in a two line or alternating four line rhyme. You up to it? COOL....... Superb piece of poetry really my friend. Your growth is showing wonderfully. If you find yourself stranded in a storm ...then reach for my hand and we will play in the puddles together |
