Silent Sounds Soulfully she calls out to him, hear me Like a spirit on the wind, nay Circe Come hear the call, come, this the force compels Nature is driven, thus this command swells Hear me, on ghost winds her words to him fly Hear me, his head tilts at sounds by and bye Seek me, his thoughts once steady, now in flow Seek me, heart racing back to long ago Heart dashing, blood pounding, he pains once more This, the loss of his love, forevermore To hear in his heart, seek her ‘long the shore Knowing he’ll not see her face, evermore Shades of sound rush to his ear, hot tears cast Hear me, seek me, loud silence from his past and he cries, his heart’s pain is so, so vast his spirit despairs, for the die that’s cast ~*~ 01.30.01 revised 04.11.02 |

Karilea I loved the sound of this outloud...it is very lyrical, a heart song, sad yet filled with evermore. |

Hear me, on ghost winds her words to him fly Hear me, his head tilts at sounds by and bye Seek me, his thoughts once steady, now in flow Seek me, heart racing back to long ago ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Karilea...how wonderful for this to be my last read before sleep... lovely, haunting, lyrical. *I shall not even ask as to when you sleep... if indeed you do!* Love this one...into the library it goes! ~Nite, hugs~ |

An AWESOME poem, Karilea... Shades of sound rush to his ear, hot tears cast Hear me, seek me, loud silence from his past and he cries, his heart’s pain is so, so vast his spirit despairs, for the die that’s cast painful and romantic, all at once... ~lots and lots of hugs~ copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |

The mood is set and developed well throughout the poem, The repeating words and similar rhymes (in the third and fourth Stanzas) are wonderful method, Enjoyed the poem greatly. Gloom |

Dear Sunshine, this is a lovely piece of writing, I saw an old man sitting quietly and alone in a beautiful park watching over the sea, daydreaming as the breeze of day blew, remembering with sadness as the wispers of a past love rode by on the breeze of a sad goodbye. Loved it. Sincerely Rick |

"Hear me", the softest whisper flows into the ears as a tear now shows "Seek me", compels and captivates him standing, listening, only the beat of a love torn heart.... Beautiful write Karilea....very very nice. |

Yes, Mysteria...bittersweet, perhaps, but knowing the feel... wouldn't miss that for the world... especially when it can bring such good things... |
