Once upon a time Words full of rhyme Flowed from my pen Reflecting where I've been They covered the page Releasing the cage Where I was trapped When my strength was sapped I longed to be Once again free To soar the sky Like the eagles fly Protect me my friend Help my wings to mend Through grace I'm healed As our bond is sealed The road had been long Changing life's sweet song There's a prominent new theme That echoes through my dreams Its cadence is ingrained In each and every quatrain That I now shall write As this eagle takes to flight All writing comes by the grace of God. -Ralph Waldo Emerson [This message has been edited by Lone Wolf (edited 07-12-2001).] |

rhythmic and exciting of message as well uh, speaking of cadence...I don't think you need the word 'to' in the last line...what do you think? [This message has been edited by VAS (edited 07-12-2001).] |

sp: You just have to love a good cadence! Thanks! VAS: Thanks, but I think it works either way. The message is what really counts. Sue: Thank you! Cindi: Happy to hear you enjoyed. The rhyme in this one just kind of fell into place. Logan: The wings are spread and the view is awesome!! I much appreciate your thoughts and replies to my work, my friend. 5_sweet_kisses: Thank you and welcome! James: ![]() Temptress: I believe that with each word we write, we all continually grow as poets and people. Thank you! Cpat Hair: Thanks to you! All writing comes |
