I listen quietly to your heart Dancing softly within your words as you express just a tiny bit of who you are Each writing a discovery A tiny piece of an intricate puzzle Beautiful and deep The original soul Matching no other A gift to see To understand I study each piece thoughtfully Tracing the edges gently with a fingertip The soft curves and sharp corners Placing it carefully within the puzzle of you inside my mind "When people show you who they are, believe them" |

The mystery of the other . . . Nicely captured, J A W, well done! I especially liked the last three lines: "Placing it carefully within the puzzle of you inside my mind" Krawdad |

You know where your at with everything you write. So i really don't think there is a puzzle...with knowing how the pieces fit. And by the you have been discovered since you been here.. Bernie Bernie Slicker [This message has been edited by bslicker (edited 03-18-2001).] |

Thanks so much everyone! Bernie, I kinda meant discovering others through their poetry. But in truth, I suppose that does include myself. Though I appricate that it may look like I know where I am. *laughing* Raindrops, my head is on, it's just not always straight! "When people show you who they are, believe them" |

'I listen quietly to your heart Dancing softly within your words as you express just a tiny bit of who you are' Yes, poetry does blow our cover, doesn't it?? This is just excellent, JAW! Truly enjoyed this one... sp do I believe we'd be better off apart? |

sometimes, though. . . the pieces that we see aren't all that's there. . . that's when we have to look back in the box, and see the pieces that we've missed. . . excellent. . . wonderfully told. . . ------------------------------------------------------------ To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
