Hope and Faith I shift and sift the sands of time solemnly, only in my mind and weigh the say of daily pray and wonder if I'll make the climb too much lost on love long spent and too soon to have reached content though softest croon lies deep in my throat it's caught, the note it hardly floats I can't sing for solace to bring ~ but the rains, they come again ~ fleeting, albeit, the sad gray days so I sift and shift the moments away in rhyme of time a sip of wine and look forward to what might be ~ for hope, you see… carries me…. ~ the moment will pass, while looking glass glazes o'er the truth of sure… and I gather in then blot up the spilled dreams of a loving cup but drips and drops are left behind sweeter fallen than in my mind and curse not I the roads traversed for they have all rehearsed me to where I shall stage my written page for the war's been waged and gone is the rage… and gone, too, the grief lacking, tho, a sense of relief ~ but hope, you see, carries me…. and faith… ~ that I shall find the best that's yet to be e'en if told for now my dreams are naught but fallacy I shall dream my dreams, anyway and believe in the belief that come what may this striving gives goal to find the shoal that shall harbor me as my dreams foresee…. for hope, and faith, carry me. 02.11.01 Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Kari dear heart, how utterly utterly truly wonderful is this piece from you utterly fabulous work love. Oh how much this calls to me, it really sings in my soul. Just when I think I might be reaching a little further you show me how vain I really am. This is such brilliant work love, superb truly terrific. ======================================== and gone, too, the grief lacking, tho, a sense of relief ~ but hope, you see, carries me…. and faith… ~ that I shall find the best that's yet to be e'en if told for now my dreams are naught but fallacy I shall dream my dreams, anyway and believe in the belief that come what may this striving gives goal to find the shoal that shall harbor me as my dreams foresee…. ======================================= when you whispered I heard and responded, fabulous. ![]() Take care love as always Puck ![]() You know I love this don't you? Good because I do. Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

You know, Charisma, I almost didn't add those lines...I had thought the poem done before I had reached them... I'm so very glad they found their way in... thank you! |

How true is is that we not lament the roads that brought us here because, although rocky, we have arrived at this place because of them....very poignant, sunshine |
