Run Silent Run Deep Retrospection swept in sweep Down and deep into my sleep Tiling out the ground about Till it route the right thought out. Washed upon far shores of ebb Shook my head to clear the web. Held me up to ridicule And sanctioned me a damn fool. Why did you wait, let her fly This Goddess this butterfly You let her fly, sigh away Beyond a year and a day. Now you wile away the time Writing verse and nonsense rhyme. Pining to the sky above Yearning for a long lost love. She is gone will not return No matter your churn or yearn. |

Oh, Seymour~ Your title grabbed me - from long ago memories. Do you remember that wonderful movie ? Still among my classic favorites. Well ... I need to say I enjoyed this read and the memories it stirred. I'll take your 'nonsense rhyme' anytime ! Love ya' ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Beautiful butterfly now gone...but never forgotten any verse of her...will not ever be words misbegotten Engrave her name ... in your golden rhyme etch your love unending ... in sands of time Tho fate took her from you ... in a moment cruel holding on to the love ... does not deem you a fool Recite her in your poetry ... enchant us with her memory carve your love in destiny ... set your sweet butterfly free love this one Sy-babes ... a sigh from Sy that makes us cry *winkiewinkie* me We wish ourselves beautiful, we cry in the night. Its not the love you fear ... its the fall from the height. ~Edwin McCain~ [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (edited 03-17-2001).] |

I have the book of that title Seymour... I don't think it is so much we let them go...it is more like they are leaving no matter what we do and whether we like it or not...James |
