I've wandered down the road winding it's way around and back again leading to you but there is always another turn to take a twist of fate that blinds my eyes. Like a bad dream where I'm peddling forward faster yet my legs don't move and I am still here lost inside a maze of dead ends. My tracks left to trace back to nowhere marked by the hands of time that I wish to hold again watching the world go by looking over lands end as the night falls still and silent without fearing the unknown or looking over my shoulder for a tell tale sign that might take me back again. But I'm in too deep the trees are too tall the road too long the mountains too high to scale to continue and search for you even though I know you are there outside of my dream. I've grown tired and weary of going down the same road mile after endless mile so close to the meadow so far from the stream that I came to find. I'm thirsty and cold my heart's grown weak and I want to come inside to rest my eyes while I sleep beside you gathering my peace in another time as my dreams go by where I find you. ~*~ |

"My tracks left to trace back to nowhere marked by the hands of time that I wish to hold again watching the world go by looking over lands end as the night falls still and silent without fearing the unknown or looking over my shoulder for a tell tale sign that might take me back again." The whole, is wonderful. But this, speaks to me. Ed |

 (sigh) Oh Lori, this is lovely, sweet friend, I love this, always follow your heart and find an abode wherever you feel happiest and safest and never take a path where you feel insecure or feel like you're being watched in an infamous way! (big huggsssssss) God Bless You, 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 "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Thank you so much for reading and all your good vibes Michele. Well thank you for your nice reply littlewing. It makes the road easier seeing you here. It just needs to warm up a bit and you'll be fine, I'm almost certain of it and I have faith in you. Thank you for reading this wranx~ I hope life is on the up and up at your end of the river.

Lori...the thing about roads is, we must travel them, to see, to grow, to become who we are...and sometimes they are just not well paved. Enjoyed your poem, my friend.  |

I have been here, done this, and bought the wardrobe to go with it, however, I could never have expressed it this well. |

Lori - Sometimes the road carries us to new horizons, sometimes we don't even know it 'til it slaps us in the ... Safe travels!! (live and kicking from Nashville) |

Lori, I've been down some pretty hard roads on the path of life, too. Ones, I wish I could get completely out of my head, and never remember again. |

Hey Craig~ I could be getting closer and not even know it! I could happen! I hope the south agrees with you. Hugs to ya~ My mother used to tell me that any one of our given situations is not as unique as we might think...when it comes to the big scheme of things. Isn't life strange a turn of the page. I try not to dwell~ Hugs Ethel~ [This message has been edited by BluesSerenade (03-07-2003 02:01 AM).] |
