Bend of Sky Could I but go to bend of sky see the things that sunrise brings around the corner I would run there bare shouldered dream with wings Could a blooming backwards rose grow from petals on the lawn a breeze would take them to the face and stick them there with dew of dawn A child would know a wisdom song an old man whimsy chase around and ground would hold a crayon’s melt as night moon glows a suntan brown Love would surely stay with hands that promised ever after and trees would lay their branches down for climbing faster laughter Could I but go to bend of sky see the things that sunrise brings around the corner I would run there bare shouldered dream with wings |

beautiful Martie... A child would know a wisdom song an old man whimsy chase around and ground would hold a crayon’s melt as night moon glows a suntan brown I thought this verse wonderful! Maureen "For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. |

Martie~ So pretty, sweet sister-of-my-heart~ 'Love would surely stay with hands that promised ever after and trees would lay their branches down for climbing faster laughter' Only you ... 'climbing faster laughter'~  *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

I think you do see it and with the wonder of a child you paint the picture so that we all may share it. If only we could all see through your eyes....the wonders we would behold. Beautiful. Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

Floating again? This is beautiful imagery, Martie. 'Could a blooming backwards rose grow from petals on the lawn' That is a very interesting thought. |
