When Whispers Tell |

In gray of night beneath yon moon with pen in flow of sadness word Upon the hand in palm is held a whisper’s sigh unseen once heard Letters in fall of page in lines in dark of stroke and tremble pen within the eyes of beauty’s rest as salted tears now stream of then Lone hearts of sand in single speck in drift of tides and water’s flow tumble blindly 'mong wave in reeds as shimmer’s eyes in gleam bestow ‘Pon wane of moon and fall of stars till breeze of heart does not remain when wisp of sound on hear does tell as will the grace of lightest rain. Two hearts in beat and soul retreat into the walk of stillness light become of once when then complete from whisper touch in wane of night [This message has been edited by Magnus (05-23-2002 08:30 PM).] |

Magnus I feel as I know you, your hand and heart have reached out and touched me many many times. Your writing is incredibly beautiful carrying within it an indefinable quality that shows the worth of the man. We all have our favourite writers, Mum and Emma both have you in their top five, I have you in my top two. Your writing is incredibly descriptive and well presented. YOU are one of the stars that light the heavens. This is superb writing Love and warm stuff As always Krissy And while thy willing soul transpiers |

Barry You have a gift of sounding like one of the old romantic poets...from a time long gone, and yet with a fresh heart from today. I enjoy reading you, and you. |

Martie....thanx much...that is a style that has fascinated me for years...and I try to make a poem flow of that feel... Another poetess had made a comment that I should change my name to "The Renaissance Man"... Guess that says something too... Thanx dear lady.... |

Magnus~ When I desire to read a piece seven times ... I 'know' the poet did something very, very right~ How delicately turned are the phrases of love~ Beautiful~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |
