no dew drops kiss, no feather touch, no blissful bliss, all daffodil has long since died, no rippled pond to still my mind. another day another wish-- myself away... no pistol pointed to my head-- no point-- I am already dead. *repost from DP2* |

What a dismal feeling in this poem...hope that these aren't at all what your presently feeling. As always sharply written. Poeminister |

Well now that was a depressingly beautiful poem! No shooting Celeste everyone needs your poetry to speak out! I'm in awe of how such dark things can be so beautiful! This is a good one! |

I loved it until the end. I guess I still love it, yet I am strangely unsettled by it. Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |

all daffodil has long since died, no rippled pond to still my mind. what dies is always reborn. powerful writing but remember the calm always follows the storm. "difference between love and comfortis that comfort's more reliable and true |

Serenity~ Oh sure ... You load it, spin the barrel, cock it, squeeze the quill and play Louisiana Roulette with our hearts ~ Bullseye ! Wonderfully emotive. *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

I wanted to thank everyone, but was dismayed too, at how many could relate...to me this was a challenge to describe the nothingness feeling of depression...Marge? no russian roulette for me--I DON'T BACK DOWN. With smiles and hugs to all---I'm fine...and have every intention to do better! Love, smiles and hugs for all! Came back to say to Doreen? THAT has got to be the best all time reply....and any others willing?... ALL DONATIONS OF LOVE ACCEPTED!!!! [This message has been edited by serenity (edited 06-02-2001).] |

No rainbow tears, no dew drops kiss, no feather touch, no blissful bliss, all daffodil has long since died, no rippled pond to still my mind. another sun another day another wish-- myself away... no pistol pointed to my head-- no point-- I am already dead precise, compact...and powerful..just the way I love them... you always amaze me... Faded flower days nights gloaming grows Loon call haunts Still water and rippled minds |

err, ahh, Serenity? Yanno, I've got this little necrophilia obsession, and I was wondering if... oh, never mind... it was just some wishful thinking anyway - lol. Quite a punch in this poem. [This message has been edited by LngJhnAg (edited 07-02-2001).] |

Coco...I blush from your compliments and attention...gawd but I've missed you...can't wait until you post one of YOUR beauties! THANK YOU. Maree? It's a DATE MY SISTA! Who could resist? Mysteria...thank you kind lady! You've got a lot of class, yanno that? Waseem...thank you for reading. As you already know, I enjoy YOUR work much as well! CH--You flatter me...and I'm so glad. I'm all aglow, thank you! LW--well, I've seen better days...but this one was written hmmm...last year, I think. Back then I told the good folks in DP forum that it was brought on by the worst case of PMS that I'd ever had! Hope you are well, as well!!! LJ...you wicked, funny man! Thanks so much! Good to have your humor gracing the forum again! And Rex Allen...trust me sweetie, you are quite unforgettable! I pray that all is well with you, you've been in my thoughts as I am going through some similar personal probs. HUGS..have missed you! Thanks all...now, I swear one of these days I WILL write something so happy it'll knock the socks of you good people and we can all dance barefoot!!!! |

Taking up the challenge to match Doreens answer. Hey, I love you lots! As for this poem, I absolutely felt this way, for about a week last October. Now the pain passed but the rest of it is still there. You perfectly described the black hole. And I have read happy poems from you, so I know this is not your only side. Peace Sandra |
