Our dearest friend Bill Charles created a wonderful challenge for us all that I encourage you all to try if you haven't already! Here's the link to his wonderful challenge! I hope you enjoy it, as well as my attempt at it! /pip/Forum53/HTML/002433.html Sleepy River By: Noah Eaton 2/3/02 You’ve got your boat You’ve got your paddles Stroking on the Sleepy River to the shore of my heart You sigh whispers across my dreams Flowing like ripples Melting me As you come sailing To me… And I swim for you… I hear your swallow warble Singing lightly among the bayou breeze You kiss my heart like a fawn at the rivers bend Wending through my veins with desire Whispering For me… As you come sailing For me… As I swim for you… You are my happiest dream… You are my happiest dream… My life has been but a babbling brook I’ve never wanted anything so badly You’re all over my head Singing the opera of kismet love to me Bringing joy and peace to me… To me… As you come sailing To me… And I swim for you… Sail to me, baby I’ll hold you close to me… Sail to me, baby I’ll hold you close to me… Every time I see the waterfalls in your eyes I see this true paradise You are my Pocahontas The chatelaine of my hearts castle Come sail to me, my love Down the Sleepy River of my heart I’ll sail to you… Swim to me… I’ll come sailing for you… Swim to me… Swim to me… Swim to me… Swim to me… [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (02-03-2002 01:37 PM).] |

Noah - just looking through poems and found this one. I'm sorry that I missed it. I am amazed at your talent, and we need to do that funny one. How about some funny animal in the forest... BC |
