Lost It I seemed to have lost it can't find it, my own rhyme. The rhythm is off a bit words hard to define my feelings, of lately, the pleasures of past. I seem to have lost it in ache, dyes been cast. Short are my words and the syllables, too. Tiny the phrases when thinking comes due. Lines of no meaning, just blank in-betweens. I seemed to have lost it, reserves been too lean. Today is my un day though technically still clinging to passions of once-hads until... a word, would be nice of remembrance you'd think. But I seem to have lost it. thirty years in a blink. ~Wynter (Aug. 2,1970) "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (edited 08-02-2001).] |

I don't know if I should wish you a happy birthday or commiserate with one who may be feeling the hazy dismal malaise I feel currently creeping up. In any event I'm certain we'll survive. Enjoyed. "Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to decieve" |

Lost it? You? Hah! Just putter in that Victorian mansion and read Passions occasionally and you will be right back there. Maybe your muse is planning for Mardi Gras  |

Isn't it strange the days we remember. Seems the sad ones are the ones that stick in our heart and mind. I can't remember what I did in my thirties, too much time has passed. I'm only thinking of what today holds for me. |

I know what you mean about 30 years and I know what you mean about the fleeting part of it all, believe me. You just keep writing and feeling, that's the only thing that matters. " I walked beside the evening sea And dreamed a dream that could not be" George William Curtis" |

Hey, I know what you mean, it is hard to not remember certain days, even when they led to heartache. Nice write. Sandra |

Understood, but remember your best is yet to come. This is just a time to regroup. Throw your heart out in front of you |

Wynter...You haven't lost your rhyme for sure! My thirties were not so great, the 40's flu by, I've enjoyed my 50's...now looking forward to the big 60. (PS..I used Naked Thoughts in a poem I wrote today, not meaning you at all.please forgive me for this inconsideration.) |

Grand old thirty-one...and a lifetime to go. Can't imagine you spending any time alone without it being by choice, but alone on your birthday...yeah, kind of a bummer I guess, if you're into counting the years. Me, lot's of years, running neck and neck with Martie but I don't count the chronological ones, just the ones between the ears and I think I may finally be approaching twenty-one...hee, hee. Wrote this awhile back but will say HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU with it...(memories ARE great!) S M I L E You! jwesley
