There’s a chill in the air tonight and it’s taking me past the moon in the space between the milky way and the darkness of my room It holds me there on darkened plane against a breath so clear that I can feel the silken touch of millions of loving years The place is pealed by laughter and glittered by lullaby and it rocks a memories cradle and it drinks the hurt from sigh It is filled with music’s silence and the peace of holding hands the calm of ocean floating and the strength of a golden band There’s a light in the air tonight and the path it takes is clear its way is starlit dreaming that has turned away dark fear There’s a chill in the air tonight and it’s taking me past the moon in the space between the milky way and the darkness of my room [This message has been edited by Martie (edited 11-03-2001).] |

Sigh, Martie, your words peal with shouts of wonderment at your talent. Very nicely done, very gentle smile |

Martie, just oh my, a gentle sigh and for tonight, goodbye. What a lovely poem to read before leaving here tonight. I absolutely loved these lines, "It is filled with music’s silence and the peace of holding hands the calm of ocean floating and the strength of a golden band" ~*~ Carpe' Diem ~*~ |

Gosh, this is beautiful Martie. And it is just what I needed to read tonight. 'There’s a chill in the air tonight and it’s taking me past the moon in the space between the milky way and the darkness of my room' |

Oh Martie, Now if I could write like this, I might have stayed and posted more. But, alas my muse has retired and I am enjoying the luxury of simply reading beauty such as this. Whatever you do, don't stop writing. You have an amazing gift to bring a tear to one's eye, or bring a smile to the lips. Sometimes, both at once !! Just wonderful Martie...wonderful. hugs, Chris  Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

I'm with Chris, right now I have no muse! but reading is a way of escape I suppose for an hour or two a day. This is wonderful, Martie, just wonderful! Kathleen |
