Soul Sisters Together they fly, wing to wing Soaring to the stars, basking in lunar glow Of love and freedom their song they sing Sharing glimpses of life's ebb and flow That gentle lullaby filled with sweet regret Leaves only love filled memories and smiles An angel's insight imparted in style so eloquent Thoughts given freely so we might reflect awhile Sweet refrain drifts tranquil veil across our hearts As a soothing breeze across the Island shoals Butterflies dancing in the wind, love they do impart Defining their destiny, these Sisters of the soul "I've done all the dumb things"....Paul Kelly |

That gentle lullaby filled with sweet regret Leaves only love filled memories and smiles An angel's insight imparted in style so eloquent Thoughts given freely so we might reflect awhile =================== Eagle this is such a wonderful gesture by you and I am very flattered, honored and touched. Your wings are showing in this as well... thank you so much for this gift from your talented poets pen ... Gifts of poetry are a treasure of the heart and this one is special because it embraces a friendship discovered thru poetry here in this special place.... Holly and I found each other in the words of one anothers poetry ... and like so many here... we bonded in the sharing of our words. and I know you understand. thank you sweet poet sir very much. (YES ... I said POET) We're living in a world full of illusion Everything is so unreal My mind is in a state of confusion But I can't deny the way I feel ~Depeche Mode~ |

eagleone-- i am so glad you wrote this--was thinking about this the other day, not necessarily about jan and holly (though they both hold a very special place in my heart)...but i was thinking about how such beautiful bonds and friendships are formed thru the words of poetry and the sharing of our hearts and souls. this is just so beautiful-- brought tears to my eyes. can't think of anything more to say here...i just know they both will treasure this with all their hearts! lovely writing sir... take care amy "A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart & can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words." |

Having a close bond with a sister is something to be cherished. The way you wrote of it is moving. To be a sister, love a sister and know they love you back is a gift for the heart and yes, the soul. I have a "soul sister" she lives in Maryland and I've never met her but I will soon. Thank you for another touching poem for my library.

M E ~ I like to think it is their own words that highlight their beauty to us. Thank you! Paula ~ I've been shown that we are all angels, just that some of us are yet to learn to fly! Kit ~ Always special to have you drop by. And yes they are wonderful and beautiful people, thank you. Janet ~ Thank you my fellow poet, 'tis I who thanks you for helping us all to see it's possible to fly. Take care! ...mmm.....having a blonde moment? Amy ~ I think bonds formed through the sharing of the heart and soul tend be everlasting. I thank you for your wonderful comments my friend. Kathleen ~ I'm glad that you have felt this kind of bond, it is very special indeed. To be in your library is an honour, thank you! Butterflies ~ The beauty is in the friendship that you and Janet have discovered my friend. Truly that is a beautiful thing. Take care! |

I was all set with lavish praise... and then saw that comment about having a blonde moment. *G* Ahem!!!! LOL Seriously... you've written a lovely tribute to a couple of ladies who've enriched these blue pages beyond measure... the bond they share is even more beautiful than their butterfly wings. *S* |
