This World of Mine This world of mine, this fantasy Of which my pen so flowingly Makes candles dance in midnight dark And blue jays dance on snow capped bark This is in truth reality Of what lies deep inside of me Those little stars that dot the sky The lyrics of a lullaby The way a lovely petal turns The untamed heat as passion burns The hopes, the love, the pain, the fears The tender wet of child’s tears It’s not my hand that scrolls the phrase It is the life of passing days Recorded in the eye and mind That sings a rhythmic verse of rhyme I do not chose to come to me My fantasys' realities They shine as dreams from dreamer’s star They live within - They simply are Elizabeth Santos |

Liz, I'm a puddle. I would rather read your poetry than breathe. I know because I can't do both at the same time, and I keep reading. Do you write by candlelight? Roger |

Oh Elizabeth " they simply are" there is so much in these three little words. Money doesnt mean a thing, The best and most cherished things in life are free. What God gives us, our family, love, this is a wonderful heartfelt poem. floria |

Another beautiful poem. I enjoyed. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. [This message has been edited by Nightshade (01-18-2002 02:12 PM).] |
