You are There, Here with me Once upon a time is ever Minutes unticking dawning stayed In my vision all the oceans Wading footsteps start cascade. Across a prairie torched in sundown Drinking lips of rivers free Peaceful following of a heartbeat You are there, here with me In the mirror of reflection Scruff kneed climbing up a tree Popping bubbles of reminder You are there, here with me Could my inkwell touch creation Pierce the truth of always love You would be the one with answer Gleaned from sky climbed search above So I wait here in the stillness Opening all my depth of be With joy to find what I was knowing You are there, here with me.

A very beautiful challenge met! Your words run deep inside my soul, An imprint of the imagery, I am awestruck of your final goal, As your words are there, here with me. HUGS Just beautiful! Ter. Alone in the dark, through my thoughts comfort I do seek, through my words I find peace. |

Martie. I wish you could hear the sigh. A sigh of content, of knowing that when one reads your writings, they feel emotion that only real poets can elicit from the reader. This is a marvelous addition to the treasure that is growing from the words, You are there, here with me. A Keeper. Always. Thank you. |
