The hills displayed In shades of jade So emerald in their hue Can take me back To love I lack And things that I will do And forests deep Their secrets keep In shadows dappled green The forest shade In dell and glade Reminds me of love's scene The emerald isle On mossy stile Leads me to start anew As I climb up I softly sup On pleasure through and through The land shows rape Through colours grape Where daffodils once dwelt In frost so deep Yet while I sleep I know the frost will melt In turquoise blue The shades of you Mingle green with pride The shades of green In which you're seen Bring nature to my side And for all time The hues of lime Can thrill me to the core In paints of dill The brook and hill Can leave me wanting more Life all around In nature found Beauty to soon be seen And I shall toast My lovely host In many shades of green Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.

Yet while I sleep I know the frost will melt In turquoise blue The shades of you Mingle green with pride The shades of green In which you're seen Bring nature to my side ..... lovely O Kethry... how have you been lately? regards, sudhir |

Kethry, I've decided to come on over and be with you again. Your true colors are too beautiful to be encased in a poem. Please don't tell any of these people how truly screwed up I am. Roger |

Sudhir, beloved one, thank you for quoting my words back to me....they sound so much better coming from you. SmartChick, thanks for the great, I appreciate. Sunshine, actually my muse doesn't sleep for long, Marge simply notched it up to manic again...and for that encouragement is it's own punishment. Roger, I am sending you a private email. A sort of Hitchhikers guide to these blue pages. But one thing you should know is this site supports graphics. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Ah, but if she hadn't gotten you started, as you put it, look at all we would have missed. Thanks Marge...for pressing the "starter". jwesley |

This one reminded me of one of my own, Gaelach Glas (Irish Green). It sounded so similar...it was a good read! ^_^ LadySofia |

Hey Marsha, I don't expect to win...I only expect to stay in the game until the final quarter. Marge, to make you jubilant is my greatest desire. *HuGS* Sandra, Just when I think it can't get any better...you come along. Thanks. Juanita, so cool you could make it across, now get busy and post your own. Mush! Mush! James, You're are right I am a slow starter, .but once my motor's running...vroom I'm gone or maybe that should be swoosh...wipeout. Lady Sofia, I don't remember reading yours but I would like to if you could re-post I would appreciate it. mirror man, thank you for your fine reflection. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
