Trip to Cool I am going to take a trip to cool leave behind breathless air and the moisture filled bellowing faces that peer over the mountains with daggers of exploding power that fire across the dry I am going to the blue pacific and stand in damp sand watch children jump wave riffles water frolic glee me I am going to run with water and dive into the blossom sink into the swirl pass the line of care that sometimes falls so heavily that the heart breaks Then just cork past the reef and jetty water purring in my ears the sun a tunnel of light and be other than I The heat will drown and sink the sun melt behind line of eternity and my chair will float yes it will into the cool [This message has been edited by Martie (edited 08-12-2001).] |

Head west from those Santa Anna winds, crest the Pacific for a swim. "Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to decieve" |

I am going to run with water and dive into the blossom sink into the swirl pass the line of care that sometimes falls so heavily that the heart breaks Then just cork past the reef and jetty water purring in my ears the sun a tunnel of light and be other than I The heat will drown and sink the sun melt behind line of eternity and my chair will float yes it will into the cool ================================== where ever you are is "in the cool" this is fabulously filled with delight and anticipation.. and Martie...dont forget the sunblock this time hehe me I know no one is to blame |

Martie~ Of course you could always come to the Atlantic~ Between the water and a grape Popsicle we'd have the heat beat ! Love ya', gal~ *hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Not knocking the Atlantic...but the Pacific's where it's at! Sounds great to me Martie, and since Sunshine's got the basket, I'll bring the wine, beer, water, or whatever quenches thrist. Enjoyed this much. jwesley |

Oh, Martie... I wanna go! I could use a break from this Phoenix heat! We could both go hang out with Marge, but make mine an orange popsicle. Very cool, indeed, my friend! hugs, ~vicky |

Wanna head a little north? Across the border is the best little cook this side of heaven and she is waiting with open arms for the whole family anytime you want? Great poetry Martie! To see real beauty ~ close your eyes and listen |

Kathleen--Heavenly probably and only from my imagination. Karilea--any beach will do as long as there's peanut butter and sand sandwhiches. Hi Denise--thanks for stopping by Maree--You have your own cool, girl...but you're welcome to mine anytime. RS--You sound like you have been here. Janet Marie--ah gosh, yes!...LOL..I'm still peeling. Marge--If I could I would! Jimmy...bring it all and lots of ice! Vicky--You're not that far away to take a trip to the beach. You can stay at my bed and breakfast. Shadow--That was my reason for writing it...thank you for feeling it. Sea--I didn't know about the town "Cool". Must be sort of like "Harmony". Constance--thanks so much for the beautiful Virginia--wow, that was hot for Oregon. Sharon--I may take you up on that some day. I'd sure like to ..and thanks for the invite. |
