 ~~~* The Knowledge of her*~~~ He knew her and thought he’d draw Worlds within worlds Telling of her He knew the twinkling stars In her eyes The ever-tempting whispers in her The delicately soaring music in her Which he could all but swear of it there There tucked within her Though he has never heard the whole symphony of it He knew a sunset so different Of that of the world Where darkness is conquered With the angelic light of her And the night is just the black Scarf of her Tottering shyly Behind the steps of her And the moon Is just the jewel of her Clinging desperately To her He knew of A sunrise utterly magnificent Where all the enchanting rays of her Embrace the world Touching gently all of him And capturing And yet setting him free He knew of velvet shores of dreams That she could only give, Cascading waves of emotions That she could only stir. He knew of Silk woven In dreams of her He knew of words Different .. Once uttered by her Were the letters the same? The alphabets the same? Which he knew all his life? He could hardly tell All he could tell of Is the melody of her Enchanting And indescribable He knew Of paintings Lost Magical brushes That could paint life But never paint Her…. He knew of The lace Of her gown The delicacy of it The intricate pattern of it And secretly wondered In yearning If he could ever know The full delicacy And intricacy Of her He knew of the fluttering of doves In the vision of her And wondered Would she set his own fluttering free? Let him be all that he should be….? He knew of his own heart beats That seem to have no measure No absolute line that could describe The race with the winds that they seem to take He knew Of his breath Utterly lost Utterly gained And which is truer She alone seems to know He knew ….. And he knew And he knew And how much of her Is there in the knowledge of her? He could only wonder…… Knowing that it is The enigma Lost between folds Of the never fully realized knowledge of her. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thank you Art by: Jonathon Bowser [This message has been edited by MyEnchanted_Melody (edited 07-17-2001).] |

Wow... leaves me with numerous questions: who IS she? Does she know HIM? What is he going to do next? Would COMPLETE knowledge of her ruin her in his eyes? Wonderfully waifting and descriptive write, MEM. And I LOVE the painting! Who is the artist? (I couldn't make out the caption... it reminds me of work in the style of the brothers Hildebrandt). -MVS "When you tell the Truth, you never have to remember what you just said." |

this is so lovely your interpretation of the painting is exquisite upon a pedestal is she in his mind some of the questions raised by Mark are certainly warranted, when anyone is placed in such high regard but the romantic in me wants to let it be so, for awhile, for him and even for her superb piece |

Ron.... I loved the juxtoposed ladies too......It gives a shade of mystery..... Thank you for the nice comment ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~Mark~ He is full of questions as well and yearning for the knowledge of her...... How much of her does he know?........That seems to be the pounding question in him.....  I too have the same questions you raised.....and would the complete knowledge of her ruin her in his eyes?.....would it set him free as he wishes? The artist is Jonathon Bowser......and Yes...I think his work is magnificent and magical..... Thank you dearly ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~Vas~ Oh....let it be so......for romance and for you.....  The romantic in me has wanted it to be so.... Thank you dearly for the sweet comment and I am glad that you loved it..... Thank you *************************** It's only me.......only me I hope that would suffice eternally {{to cross a sea of wonder, and hold close at heart all dreams}} [This message has been edited by MyEnchanted_Melody (edited 07-17-2001).] |

It would seem that for any romantic. . . this would be the ultimate expression of their love. . . to know someone so completely and honestly that they would almost be ourselves. . . you write in this as if you have found that secret. . . it is my hope that you have. . . beautiful. . . just beautiful. . . -------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person.

I find it amazing that a man could feel so much towards a woman. It feels my heart with warmth to know men still feel that way towards a woman. Deep, true and un-ending... (sigh) She is one lucky girl! |
