Fallen Beams ~*Marge Tindal*~ Across the streams of yesterday fallen beams of short-lived dreams became the pathways stepping-stones taking me across the river of regret to mend a friendship breached long ago leading me where I haven't been yet ... yet back to where I should go Light of hope falls in front of me casting shadows where I've been Stepping so lightly across your beams seeking the glow of a long-lost friend Suddenly before me a doorway opens Your smile spreads as wide as your arms Folding me in with gentle chiding "I've missed you, friend." "Where ya' been hiding ?" ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

I have certain friends [my fortune I have more than some] that share with me the passing of days, weeks, months....when suddenly we are calling, writing, seeking each other.... constantly....ESP....moon's dance....perchance.... but I never question it....I just hug them... |

Marge, another one to pull at us and maybe make a few phone calls. . . Work like money doesn't matter, love like you've never been hurt, dance like nobody's watching... |

Karilea~ And that is just as it should be ... Forever starts with a hug ! *Hug* Mysteria~ Friendships on forever-bridges - constantly crossed on well-worn paths ... *Hug* HM3~ To even hope that you might be stirred to call a long-lost friend makes me understand why I felt the need to post this one. Thank you. *Hug* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Marge--True friendship is one that takes up where it left off...even though time has moved...it is like time stood still. Thanks for reminding me. |

TradeWind~ If we let each friend be a good friend - then even one is too treasured to lose. Thank you so much for the read and reply. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] [This message has been edited by Marge Tindal (edited 04-08-2001).] |

Margie girl, am I simply to call you friend? Nay say sister, sister of my heart and always I'd know the path to you and you will always have a place here in me. Love you always sister mine. That's true life is far too short to lose one friend, this reminds me of the saying a stranger is friend you haven't met yet. You have a million friends dear Margie girl, because they love you, as do I! Take care sweet sister, love and lots of warm stuff Mushy Did I forget to say this is outstanding, always so beautifully written love, you are superb, as a sister, a friend and as a poet. And you're a truly awesome person too, love you, now I'll fly out of here, to return as and when I can. Take back the hope you gave,- I claim |
