Invisible Horizon An invisible horizon in the middle of the night Is a place to where the spirit in it’s emptiness takes flight There’s another soul whose silent voice will over distance creep In the black of night when neither one had settled into sleep A name appears of someone that you know, but never met. Whose words have been a portrait that you never will forget You have read her poems and therefore know her victories and her plight And she sends an instant message in the middle of the night Some horizons lay between us, mountain ranges, flowing stream But no barriers exist for us who met within a dream It is in the realm of poetry that many found new light And now we are together in the middle of the night Whatever kept my weary heart from drifting into sleep Has been replaced by comfort and some thoughts that I will keep Forever in my heart from one who touched me with delight As we sat and talked together in the middle of the night Elizabeth Santos |

Forever in my heart from one who touched me with delight As we sat and talked together in the middle of the night ditto! ~I always have time to listen to someone talking from their heart~ |

Beautiful Liz ... it seems there are no boundaries to this poetic realm and the hearts that are touched, wonderfully written. Best wishes, /Kit |

And isn't that what this place is all about...touching, lifting, healing, thinking, being poets... and this, a beautiful tribute! |
