This is written for a friend of mine, Kathryn. Without A Doubt It was no ordinary night that I had shaken the hands of fate For within herself was beyond an ordinary kind I breathed in amazement to the wonder of how lucky I was Without a doubt, I'd found loyalty I've waited a lifetime to find... I was among the chosen few to walk beside you, right beside you For it's grateful, that I am, without a doubt Oh, the splendid waters called my name even louder than before I found loving you was what my days were about... I lived like an angel so light and carefree to the winds And, sailed the seas with faith and never held on I knew those waters were your heart allowing me to set free So, without a doubt, I let nature carry me along... Without a doubt, I was anxiously ready to climb For nothing's ever to high for this soul to reach I feared nothing, lost nothing, to the distance below I gained bravery and trust that's all mine to keep... Without a doubt, I became curious to life around me For I was everything, yet, not anything, at all I was and I wasn't what the world needed me to be But, the world was all that I needed should I ever fall... It laid as a blanket for the weak to lay their heads Only, rarely, did I need comfort through the storms I had enough belief in the rain that the sun would still rise Not even a chill of loneliness on my face was ever worn... Without a doubt, I felt how something had changed For I could relate to the winds that blew And, while it laid it's presence everywhere around me I was certain, without a doubt, it was part of you... I surrendered to the touch, the sweetness, your light has given Without a doubt, I now know a brighter way to living I took to heart the impressions you've left me with With eyes wide open, I give thanks, for your eternal gift... Of you, My Friend For forever, Amen. Sauni Sauni  Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps [This message has been edited by Saunni (edited 07-15-2001).] |

all friends should be considered eternal, yes, I like that thought very much! "It's easier to kill love than to nurture it" Fred Hardesty |

So often in poetry (and I'm guilty of this in the extreme), writing is done in a dark style -- depressing, or macabre. This is a refreshing slant on the art that I really love to see done well. Thank you. |

Cpat Hair~ Thank for reading my poem It means alot to me. Sven~ Thank you, my friend, I just write from my heart. You are every bit angelic I must say. Thanks for reading my work. Irish Rose~ Yes, any person I take into my heart, I hold them for eternity and beyond, whatever and whereever that may be. I like the sound of it also. I am everything I say I am and I mean everything I say. Meaning, I won't let you down if you give me the chance to be your friend. Mishtheelf~ I write of many feelings, not just sad ones, however, I write from experiences I have had whether it be sad ones or good ones. But, I like sad, it gives me a whole new depth of being inside myself. There's something to be said about sad poems, I like them. Maybe because I can relate to most. Do you know of Vince Gill, in country music? He loves all sad songs, lol.Is why he sings mostly sad stuff. Thanks for reading this. Sauni :) |
