As darkling hand of night recedes there stands an army in the mist and most attentively these reeds await the words that once had kissed The willows weep the alders sigh above the moist and fertile ground while chic-a-dees on cat-tail spires sit motion-less without a sound No creatures sound out to their mates no voice of Nature's heard at all this eerie silence permeates until a voice is heard to call Awakening long dormant glen with serenades for which it's yearned and life resumes it's pace again for " meadow music " has returned [This message has been edited by Dr.Moose1 (edited 02-16-2001).] |

DrMoose~ Oh what lovely sounds await us on the break of dawn. This is replete with the imagery of anticipation. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Marge, You were quite instrumental in this piece .Thanks. Doc Nakd, Glad to get you up and going , is that de-caff or regular ? I'm kinda a full flavor type myself , poetry lite ? I don't think so. Thanks. Doc suthern , Thank you , I brought out my best brushes to paint this for one who was away but has returned . Doc Paula, Yes , I too , seem always to be waiting , my life on hold , knowing that completion is just a word away ! But then again , I'm nuts ! serenity, Can you spare some ? Keepers as in fish , are as large as one would wish , but fools as general rules , are often found in schools.I forgot who said that , maybe it was me . Thanks , Doc |

This reply is just a word to thank you for the chance to read such a fine poem, I’ve read it several times and it gets better on each occasion. Thanks again for the chance to read and reply Yes, I admit your general rule. That every poet is a fool: But I myself may serve to show it. That every fool is not a poet. |
