Déjà vu (or What is real) |

Dreaming dreams Scheming schemes Eyes wide open Or are they Loving you And the view Just we two Or are we What is love Is it a dove Of peace Most everlasting Or can we share A love so bare Give wings to roots We’re clasping I know it’s real For I can feel Unselfish With the real I know the deal You can’t conceal Despite my bed’s Aloneness My arms too My eyes their view Of empty skins caress Yet ears convince My mind they mince And tear my soul apart You voice succeeds And fills my needs Takes chill from my heart [This message has been edited by Wilfred Yeats (edited 02-07-2001).] |

"You voice succeeds And fills my needs Takes chill from my heart" enjoyed this immensely, bill..... it's well written and clearly straight from the heart.... i loved the ending lines i quoted above... and to answer your question? nothing's real ... or is it? *wink* |

Bill--so many questions...sometimes what is a dream is sweeter than what is real...and sometimes dreams are nightmares...yet, what is real, I believe...is a feeling, no mater what its source. Thoughtfilled poem. |

just the sound of the words "deja vu" offer up a mystical sensation all their own... as does this fine piece.... Well done Mr. Yeats.... |

Bill, Déjà vu... you do know I'd never steal from you... Your style and mine, shall I say are a bit different... And I don't think I'm up for a change. Another good write Bill but I could never do as you... I think it was all those drugs back in he sizties you know college daze and haze... Must have fized my head. Your great, dale |
