Moon Less Evening Shade Now, I wander, having played with thought and twine having encompassed what is not mine, moon less wander, evening’s shade, skies in cover, stars evade… will it rain me snow on high, or cover me with ice in cry I but be a poet, weak engaged in thought of quiet speak beat I no drum, but still, I seek the truth, the truth would I beseech, the truth, the truth, is it in reach? I come to a quandary, and its fade, and jade, the color green, is what I encounter day by day and envy is its other name or so, a poet would say… understood, no, I am not, but not by my own consent, for I would understood then be, but how many limbs be bent? This responsible person in me should grasp the say carpe diem and hold it all the way letting me understand those who, not me, those whose grasp is less my own as I, in quiet, be, less more my thoughts before I speak, less evil become my tongue, I seek an answer, swift, to me, as I seek it, rung, by rung… find me now backbone of heaven break me bread if it unleavened, salt my soul if wounds would bleed and in quandary, find lemons in need… as I would gather me quiet in this moon less evening shade… [This message has been edited by Sunshine (02-25-2003 09:34 PM).] |

That was captivating. I loved that poem, it was full of thoughs and wisdom. (Is that a new picture?) the Wind is invisible. |

Very nice sunshine, I really like the lines, "I but be a poet, weak engaged in thought of quiet speak" two thumbs Got the "e" from Ron and it seems to be working. It was strange, I did it right but he said it could have just been the server's fault... thanks so much again... lucky dale Speaking of ghosts, and after such an eternity. . .wouldn't you know, here comes mine again... |

You knocked me off my chair with this one---and I'm typing my reply from the floor!!! Gadzooks, you just blow me away, Dear poetess! It may be awhile before I can fly again, for my wings have sustained some damage in my fall...but the read was worth it! Warm hugs (but careful ones as the wings are a bit tender) Earth Angel |
