~*Starfish Wishes*~  walking along the beach of remember a soft silhouette in twilight's last ember waves of recall tease the shores of my soul lend sweet reminisce to tranquility's stroll digging my toes in the sands of 'gone by' sifting through memories ~ salt air on a sigh lost in remembering a love left to chance still feeling you with me embraced in the dance starfish wishes in whispered pleas drift slowly away on the ocean breeze across the seas to the heart of you remembering you love me too ~vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes [This message has been edited by vlraynes (edited 08-24-2001).] |

Well little desert gal, that was simply lovely (for a second thought I thought you were SEA)  it read so smoothly and your selected phasing was beautiful as was the picture you choose to top your wonderful poem off like a cherry on a sundae!~*If you can't say anything nice about someone, don't say anything at all*~ hmmm...they were smart whomever said that! |

Vicky~ This is one of the prettiest pieces to fall prey to your pen~ What soft, reminiscent imagery~ You're surfing some poignant waves of recall~ Touching tender here, dear poetess~ Lova you~  ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

I love to sea poetry like this - It makes me homesick though - Gotta have my ocean, I guess... |

digging my toes in the sands of 'gone by' sifting through memories ~ salt air on a sigh lost in remembering a love left to chance still feeling you with me embraced in the dance A love poem that sings...a tune I remember well. |

"digging my toes in the sands of 'gone by' sifting through memories ~ salt air on a sigh lost in remembering a love left to chance still feeling you with me embraced in the dance" This is exceptionally pretty poetry! |
