It Was Marvelous! seven days six nights before All Hallows’ Eve we met deep in the forest at the great stone table trees whispered secrets owls serenaded la luna worms set up parades through the forest floor already it was the magical time weaving promises of frightful, alluring fantasy Gable and I peered into the margolis bowl hoping to see mystery while Serenata waited patiently for our eyes to perceive we were not disappointed... there, in the bowl, magic was woven oh, that you could see, it would be an exciting pleasure, yet, as you cannot, I know it is impossible for you to understand or believe what we saw. So I shall make no attempt to explain nor describe, just know, it was marvelous! Whether on the shoal or on the shore, I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Thank you all, and Sunshine, I've come in intermittently over the past few weeks. Fortunately, I've been kept really busy subbing. Also, it seems that people might be less tired of my poetry popping up since it pops up much less these days. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

pure fantasy! it is a response to a challenge to write to a painting, see the painting by locating "October Painting Challenge of the Month" at www.voy.com/1001. You'll need to use Internet Explorer, Netscape won't work. Click on the above subject...you'll have to scroll down quite a ways to find it. Then click on Painting Challenge, then on October 2001 and then I think you'll be there. Thank you all for your words of encouragement. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |
