~*~ Whither thou goest I shall follow thee To the depths of oceans deep To the height of mountains high I shall follow thee Whither thou goest I shall stand by thee Thru' all kinds of weather Tho' it be storm or sun-filled days I shall stand by thee Whither thou goest I shall love only thee From the depths of mine heart deep To the height of mine soul on high I shall love only thee ~*~ [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (04-07-2003 09:30 AM).] |

Excellent piece, straightforward. My only suggestion is that maybe you could play around a little more with the imagery or maybe add a metaphysical conceit if you'd like (examples read John Donne) I really liked it though, sorry if it seems i don't. Brad |

Pat ~ Morning to you as well, dear friend! I often write straight from my heart and without my head involved--nothing fancy--written with little thought to structure, imagery, rhyming... just something plain and simple and hopefully rings true to those who read my words that I dish out like a home-cooked meal! Warm hugs, Linda xo |

Brad ~ Welcome to Passions! I am sure that you will enjoy it here! We are a great big loving family who love writing and reading poetry! Yes, my poem is most definitely "straight-forward"! It is plain and simple sentiments from the heart. I know you are not familiar with my poetry, but I couldn't help but chuckle when your suggested that I add a metaphysical concept to a poem! LOL --I AM metaphysical being! It sounds as though you have a bent for the unseen as well and I look forward to reading your poetry! Warm, welcoming hugs, Love & Eternal Light, Earth Angel |

As a little girl, I'd read the verses in Ruth and wait for the day I could speak them to someone special. *S* *sigh* I'm still waiting!!!! LOL (Mind you, part of the deal is that he sticks around to listen as I speak! LOL) I love this, EA... very much. *S* |

Five stars...reminded me of a song... "I will follow you, wherever you may go. There isn't an ocean so deep, a mountain so high it can keep, keep me away, away from your love." It had a fantastic flow...James |

James ~ I do not believe that a poem of mine has ever received a 5-star rating! Thank you! I have, however, received a 4-thumbs-up rating which gave rise to several questions for me as to the origins of the replier! Love & Light, Linda |
