In Words...I find beauty in words...I find peace in parlance of living in figures of speech the comfort of writing ink...meeting with page the soothing of soul the ebbing of rage in rhyme...I find reason for all of life's seasons expressions of love and humor and pain when written on paper...make me feel sane the sacred union of paper and words bonded by thought...these lovers converge a marriage well scripted with love and with lust in words of forever...laced with truth and with trust Lyra |

Lyra, The candlestick shape of your poem is the perfect symbol for the light-giving candle that you are. Soon as I figure out how to hug someone through a computer; watch out! Roger |

Startime, Roger and Stevie.... Thanks so much for your replies... Writing is very soothing...even though sometimes it doesn't turn out like I want it to...its still great therapy.   Roger...this is how you give someone a hug through the computer.  copyright2001 Lyra Nesius |

Well dear lady. In this you wrote a keeper. I must put into words this day that while you are gone, you are not forgotten. These are truly words to cherish.  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
