Loves Sweet Sorrow Part Two The Morn Arises The restless night had not prevented the sun from making a daily journey to morns arising the lace trimmed pillows strewn across the bed still wet from tears she had been softly crying. She stepped out onto the veranda for breakfast just like she had done on every other morn heavy was her heart from loves sweet sorrow there was no hunger, her heart was now torn. Her daily stroll she made past the orchards the aroma of peach hanging heavy on the air she paused to tarry amongst the willow trees coming to rest in her favorite faded wicker chair. This had become her tranquil place of mind as though her spirits own private sanctuary it was here that she loved listening to the wind and lonesome whistle sounds of a passing ferry. Willow trees bending over touching the ground reminded her of angel tears falling from the sky but this day they were not the tears of angels it was her own tears the willows did now cry. On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. ~Me~ (I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance~Garth) [This message has been edited by Gentle Spirit (edited 10-25-2001).] |

JM, this is the perfect image to match this poem, as though you saw my vision....... Thank you! Sey, I thank you, and you are much appreciated. Star, thank you dear, for reading! Noah, you are a shining light upon my words. Nancy, indeed I am pleased that you enjoyed Lauren, this compliment from your heart I appreciate as I do your friendship. Hugs. Reg, somh~perhaps we shall both someday sit under the beauty of the willows on worn chairs of wicker..... and we shall just enjoy the day! thanks. (part three on the way!) James, So glad you found enjoyment in these words. Thank you for reading them. Hugs to all. On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. ~Me~ (I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance~Garth) [This message has been edited by Gentle Spirit (edited 10-26-2001).] |
