Unbeknownst, to all it creeps, foreshadow--highlight laughter's weep each day to seek a moment's peace as accusations line my bed. Where now do I rest my head? Marble, cold, in pillow's stead. And all our dreams a map's pushpin, re-routing path to suit my whim in agony of heart in bleed, I wish that I could ache in stead. But such grace, it must be earned, the shiver'd shake of fever's burn I wish that I were holy, true-- that by faith, my hands heal you. But my father, I know this. My life began in loving kiss. Blessed I, in hold of hand Blessed I, to understand. My lips in touch of old hand's grace, my memory's etching of your face. As my life began this way... with love, a kiss-in nurturing I thank you that it end this way. Love in lingering each day. [This message has been edited by serenity (edited 04-18-2001).] |

beautiful! And not a piece to be read lightly and forgotten. Many subtle nuances to tease the mind. Great job. |
