There Once Was... |

There once was a girl who kept trying... To become what her heart was denying... She was lost in his dream, while inside her heart screamed... When alone, she would find herself crying... She'd always been good to her mother... And kind to her sisters and brother... Two men in her life... Both took her to wife, and for granted...her spirit they smothered... The years rolled along, she got older... The need in her soul became bolder... She found she could write, there was many a night... When she simply wrote what her heart told her... The words were a magical potion... They set a new life into motion... She lived in their home, but her gypsy soul roamed... On the net, with determined devotion... She knew it was out there...she'd find it... Her heart was the culprit behind it... And if one lonely day, love should happen her way... Her heart would jump in, never mind it... And that's where the story continues... There's a choice of two plates, and two menus... On the one...nothing there... On the other...Fate's fare... Hard to choose between opposite venues... This story, as yet, has no ending... And today is another beginning... Closer look...one can see... Love has set two hearts free... While the future awaits, and is pending... The road goes on forever, and the stories never end... |

To live on other planes through the stroke fo a keyboard, is quite satisfying to the soul looking for release...gentle smile |

Sunny, is it me, or is this a perfect lymeric style? Well thats how it flowed when I read it, anyway. Great poem, and such a true message. Thats us, alright. And what can you do? Keep on writing, and keep the open heart, and no other choices, as I see it. Love this. Sandra |

(smiles) What a beautiful feeling indeed, where the sun finally shines on ones soul to feel the magic of loves voice sing in ones heart! (smiles) I love the rhyme scheme in this poem, it's like seven limericks connected together! (smiles) I too pray for her love to last a lifetime and may this girl that was once lost be happy ever after! (smiles) BRAVO!!! I love it, sweet Sunny! You have such a beautiful heart, dear friend, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
