Eternity's Wind Grains disbursed into memory's mold Archiving briefly our new love's trail Each imprint another chapter to be told As they are read between kisses set asail Waves of jade marbled in curls of white Breaching the silence with Neptune's song As Luna showers in the stars of this night She salts the air between embraces strong Gentle tugs pulling the tides of lust Between sparkles of our crested gaze As tender lips adorn a bridge of trust Blazing a future within scalloped maze As imprints wash away in a tidal girth Seagulls dance as our two hearts ascend Twirling on a breeze of tomorrow's birth Our love is entrusted to eternity's wind Mark Christopher JM posting this for Mark, he's traveling with his new job. He apologizes for not being here to reply to your work, but the poems are read to him. He sends his regards and hellos to all. |

"As tender lips adorn a bridge of trust" It was nearly impossible to choose a favorite phrase from such a well-constructed cohesive whole... but this line just kept calling me back with its beauty... and what great promise the last verse contains! *S* No one else writes of love with such perfection... and no one equals your descriptive powers. These blue pages just aren't as addictive when your name is missing, Mark. Many thanks to JM for posting this for you... and many hopes that you can return soon. Your poetry and replies are so much missed! |

Mark, such a pleasure to see you here...even if it's through Janet. This is, as usual, a beautiful poem. Take care and come back soon, Dee Janet, thanks for the email. I don't get here as much as I'd like and I would've missed this otherwise. Dee I wish you every happiness and may you always have the best of the good things in life. a brand |

"As tender lips adorn a bridge of trust" "Seagulls dance as our two hearts ascend Twirling on a breeze of tomorrow's birth" Ahhhh Mark ... so good to read you again! I hope all is going well, we've missed you! You've clearly continued to write beautiful poetry in your absence from us ... this is just lovely. Wonderfully descriptive, with so many incredibly visual lines. Beautifully written! Best wishes and hope to see more from you soon, /Kit |

As I said earlier... no one writes love poems better. *S* But since I no longer harbor hopes that I'll ever inspire such a critter, I sometimes turn a little green with envy reading love poems, even when reading the best. *G* So... if you thought this was enough of a fix to last your addicts a while, think again! LOL You are greatly missed, cowboy... this place just isn't the same without your replies and ALL your great poetry. *S* That missing inspired the poem I just posted... I hope Janet Marie will be kind enough to read it to you. *S* Hurry back! |
