YOU > > > > > < < < < < ME There are only miles between us Miles bridged by telephone lines And these blue pages where we write. Miles are nothing to a heart Hungry for love and understanding. YOU > > > < < < ME We have walked together on distant beaches Held hands under starry skies Shared kisses in the mornings mist Through the power of our words Through the song in our hearts. YOU < > ME Imagination plays its part To keep us closer than we really are Dreams of someday holding you Dreams I know we'll make happen Because miles are nothing to a loving heart. YOU ME So we'll work through the doubts Through the distance, through the miles And there will come a day soon When the only thing between us Will be our next heartbeat. YOUME |

Beautiful positive writing Paula ...I really love how you made the miles shrink as the poem progressed...exceptional work!! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |

Paula, I love the way this starts with such a great distance, and gradually eliminates it. How wonderful. I pray for you it happens just that way. Sandra |

Live for that day, cherish that day,remember that day...learn from my mistakes...never tarnish that day with reality not expected now. Your dreams...my heart. You are a good friend and great poet. Thank you. |
