This morning I looked at my hand focusing hard tuning out the other voices my hand touching your face for the first time taking pen to write of sensation believed known until this moment my hand touching love was a fool waiting for you |

Duncan, will it be "known" or "unknown" in the line "believed known"?? [This message has been edited by faterider (edited 11-13-2001).] |

my hand touching love was a fool waiting for you I believe that this just sums it up, we so often feel a fool after having waited for love.......but sooner or later it does show up. Beautiful write Duncan. On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. |

believed known until this moment my hand touching love was a fool waiting for you ======================= just have to smile at the cleverness and sincerety of this one Duncan... the intent and impact are written to concise, succinct perfection. what a very very cool poem well done poet sir. You're the hidden cost and the thing that's lost in everything I do. |

*sigh* I wonder if I am a fool for waiting for love. This poem made me sit back and wonder...maybe I am but I cannot help but believe somewhere there may be love for me. Very well done, Duncan. Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

(big huggssssssss) Oh Duncan, I feel just the same way; I wonder if I'm always a fool to think if I will ever be loved, like I am just a sad dreamer and I'll never fall in love, or if this love is real. (sigh) My heart goes out to you, but I believe deep down the true love is just around the corner, who will happily take your hand and have this first dance with you to last eternally! (smiles) Such powerful thoughts, sweet friend, we all love you very much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Duncan, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

*sigh*, another stunning beauty from you.It made my heart skip a little with the emotion in it. I think I'm going to print it off and take it to Savannah with me. Are ya surprised to hear from me here in Tampa? I'm using my colleagues computer and just had to quick sign in to tell you how much I loved this. Til Sunday... If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |
