My sojourn here is at an end. It's time to say good-bye, my friend. I've done the things I had to do And said farewell to all, but you. Between us there has been a tie. You've let the summer pass on by Without a word to show that you Feel more than friendship. I have too. I see you standing by the door. We hold hands, as we have before, But when I start to turn away, You utter just that one word, "stay!" And stay I will, for I can see Within your eyes, my destiny! |

A simple rhyme. I enjoyed it a great deal. ~Allan If I had your eyes, I'd be blind. For I can only see out of my own. ~~Carly Van Dort |

Trillium~ Oh... nice, very nice. You captured a moment that lasts ... And I, in soft turning ... stay. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
