She Borrows but Returns Tenfold She says “people don’t talk to me anymore ‘cause I’m always taking their lines” Like a silvery apparition she sweeps in sweeps up sweeps away So much so, I find myself searching, probing for My line, a snippet of thought a line of pain a gesture gained And I turn the page… There they are… Four or five or six words strung together in a weave such as I cannot believe Those words having stemmed from my thoughts And now! They have been wrought with mystery and magic and music by her pen… She is remarkable and funny downright seriously gifted I don’t know the all of her Or the wheres and whys and hows of her I just know She borrows my words and returns them, tenfold.

Oh my gosh, Sunshine. I just cannot believe how beautiful and unique this is.. You must be proud that she thinks enough of you to borrow your words, then you honor her by saying she returns it tenfold. This is simply remarkable. floria Floria |

Karilea...I love this one so much! Love the presentation, the way the words dance down the page. I'll bet Doreen enjoyed it as well. ~Hugs, Nancy~ ~Time has cast a spell on you, So you won't ever forget me~ [This message has been edited by Enchantress (01-29-2002 07:35 PM).] |

At the risk of being oh so cliche' - this was really cool and Doreen must have loved it very much ~* Carpe' Diem *~ [This message has been edited by Mysteria (01-29-2002 07:54 PM).] |

Would that I could borrow words from both of you ... but I could never improve upon them Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

BRAVO!!!Her respect for you comes through when your words are borrowed and yours for her comes through when you pen a masterpiece like this one to her. Very well done. **big hugs** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

The great thing about her is that she asks before she borrows them... but.. once she's cast her magic on them, who'd want them back anyway???.. |

You are so right, Nan...it's just an honor to be asked, let alone to think that something I wrote inspires her...or anyone, for that matter... thank you everyone, for enjoying this poet along with me... |
