At last I have found the password that has opened up a new page. My hands rest on the keys of a paragraph yet to start, beginning in the here and now instead of once upon a time. If perhaps a chapter unfolds then I shall continue, considering myself lucky. But for now it is about the spring time of my life. Once compared to a convenience market, one I don't plan to corner or have the chance to visit often, filled with luxuries that I don't dare to dream. There's some cheap bargains here and there, necessities I thought I had to have are no longer important, nor worth the time looking back. There are books filled with chapters resembling mass mailed catalogues. Discarded goods where everything is on sale, a small price just for the asking. When all I want is to write of you and have you read me in the proper light leafing through my pages with your fingertips. Perhaps indulging me in your luxury like a novel lover binds to the story line. [This message has been edited by BluesSerenade (04-01-2002 09:11 PM).] |

 (smiles) This is such a gorgeous novel poem, sweet friend, this reminded me of the Elvis Costello song "Everyday I Write The Book"! (kiss on cheek) I love this, sweet friend, this is a bestseller on my chart, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lori, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Love this Lori, especially that last stanza: When all I want is to write of you and have you read me in the proper light leafing through my pages with your fingertips. Perhaps indulging me in your luxury like a novel lover binds to the story line Isn’t that what we all hope to find? Here in the spring time of our lives. I think we should always consider ourselves in the springtime of life. What a perfect time. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Lyra~ The word novel can mean several thing huh? You're cute, and thank you. Sandra~ Now if only the entire poem was like the ending, but it wouldn't work without all that needed to be said in between. Hugs Sandra~ Martie~ Thank you for leaving your kind words. Noah~ I've heard that song before and I think how everyday there's another thought to process. Thanks Noah~Regina~ A good book is hard to put down eh? Thanks so much for reading me. Larry~ Ok, and thanks, but how do they say, you can't judge a book by it's cover!! Nancy~ Thanks Nancy, appreciate the read and your nice comments. Lauren~ I don't think any one of us want to be put down, or unfinished. After all the ending is supposed to be the best part. Tracey~ It is a nice time of year that holds so much promise. I love hearing from you Tracey. Thanks. Dark Stranger~ My approach to what? The ending!! Nice to see you here DS. Floria~ Where have you been girl? I've missed reading you too. I shall patiently await your next post. Thank you Floria~ [This message has been edited by BluesSerenade (04-03-2002 04:53 PM).] |
