A Place Where water washes on the sand A place where ocean meets with man It’s here I walk along the edge Of lapping waves on dreamer’s ledge Within the voice of mountain falls I sit upon a rock that calls Where flowing waters meet with me I let my visions dangle free In woods of lush and leafy green Where man encounters nature’s queen It’s here I pause to contemplate This day, this hour, and this, my fate On footpath I have often plod A place where man can meet with God On Allegheny’s highest ridge “Tween God and man there is a bridge I want to be where I can feel The richness of the true, the real The rhythms of the ocean’s tide The shade where fawn and doe abide I want to walk the rim of height The peak of promise, edge of night A place within these dreams of ours Where I can reach and touch the stars Elizabeth Santos [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (12-23-2001 09:14 AM).] |

Beautiful - but on your way, could you stop in and perhaps kick a wave or two with me? ~*~ The Very Best Of The Season To You And Yours ~*~ [This message has been edited by Mysteria (12-24-2001 02:19 AM).] |
