Love's Sad Lullabies |

Burden carried, every last stone Not be married, remain alone The task taken, unbearable weight Love forsaken, before the gate. A vision held, is growing dim Of love once felt, of her and him Two hearts in beat, once then entwined A love truly sweet, as ever did find. Lonely lost thought, once felt so strong Gently once sought, eternity of song Left to wander, in feelings of two Nightly ponder, this search for you. What then it was...no longer to be Love’s gentle buzz, of flying bee Lost in a place, truth with no lies Tears in my face, as one heart cries. Turning away, not able to say of what once was, no longer will stay Left with a tear, falling from eyes as I sing dear, sad lullabies Sorry Mushy....I changed my mind...(I told her I wasn't going to post a poem today) [This message has been edited by Magnus (03-31-2002 06:51 PM).] |

oooooo...a death in the heart...owie Chivalry is not dead. I saw it coughing up lung butter last night, but it was still alive. I think it has parvo. |

Magnus darling boy I forgive you, this is an absolutely fabulous piece from you. YOU as I’ve mentioned maybe one or twice are an absolutely fabulous writer. The softness of this the gentle dying of the love is so incredibly sadly sweet it really tugs at my hearts string. YOU have written an utterly utterly beautiful poem and I love it. Excellent writing darling boy As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

Seems sad for you, sir Barry. But touching my heat, as always. "Lonely lost thought, once felt strong Gently sought, an eternity of song Left to wander, in feelings of two Nightly ponder, this search for you." Were you peeking in my room last night?? Peace Sandra |

(big hugggssssss) Oh Barry, this is so very sad, I have never actually felt this kind of experience but I can still feel for many who experience this, for I would be heartbroken too if I had to endure this kind of rejection just when it feels the gates of eternity will open ajar! (sigh) This is sad but powerful, sweet friend, we all love you so much and wish you the happiest Easter! (big chocolate bunny hugs) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

A vision once held, is growing dim Of love once felt, of her and of him Two hearts in beat, once entwined A love truly sweet, as ever did find. Beautifully expressed, Barry ~hugs~ copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |
