the hardest part to understand walking new without a hand-- I loved you then. I love you now. but I cannot forsake the vow that I made unto myself indwelling of a ringing bell... I've changed, with no apology. change? is just the point, you see? Stagnation stinks, within, without. Proprietary love is CLOUT. This is not love--it's ownership. I pray you feel a feathered tip of but an angel's tear-dripped wing a kiss of dew, make heaven sing and with the song amazing grace release us both from slaved fate. Turn this ship around. *with a love and deference to a most beautiful song of freedom, love, and spirituality--'Amazing Grace'* |

"I pray you feel a feathered tip of but an angel's tear-dripped wing" Simply "amazing" writing Serenity ... the line above in particular, struck me as so beautifully visual, just lovely!  Best wishes, /Kit |

till death do us part.....I have prayed this prayer many times...I love the way you wrote this...much softer and caring than the anger that propels me most of the time...sigh |

So touching how you wrote this poem, to the point of how you feel but not being harsh. Kerri |

Serenity - what a slap of consciousness! Wow and wonderful all at the same time. This was like a little puppy, and followed me RIGHT into my library! |

'I've changed, with no apology. change? is just the point, you see? Stagnation stinks, within, without. Proprietary love is CLOUT. This is not love--it's ownership.' Excellent lines, serenity! Definitely the truth...I love this! sp  do I believe we'd be better off apart? can I see my world without you in it? baby, not for a single minute... |

Sometimes a girl's just got to make those decisions and stick by them....I hope the old song will serve you well in this as it has been around forever it seems. Well written with that Acadian passion showing through....you write'em I'll read'em for ya Celeste!! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |

Hi Serenity, "OH" I love the strength and wisdom in this, beautifully penned emotion, Love, Cerenity "God doesn't have to be reminded that we exist. We have to be reminded that He exist!" (Writer Unknown) |
