Place Where Sigh is Born There is a place where sigh is born, for me it came from childhood, yes, just at the line between love and trust, the rocking chair stopped my heart with touch. The play came so easy, all cuddled and warm, leaving laughter warn like old lace adorn on a girl misplaced, this step my heart took for someone I mistook. The sigh lasts awhile, I know you see, for it was born on loving knee gone wrong, around a lit room of dark wood canopy a spell of forlorn was given to me. So, I tell my heart be still, you are as lovely as the song you sing, but sometimes I don’t listen to me, the words are flat, the touch unreal and still a cave of darkness I feel. |

YAY!!! Oh Martie, this is soooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, I believe childhood is the most magical time of all for innocence and sighs to shine, though I believe that magic will always shine in us all! (kiss on cheek) This is breathtaking, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Martie the only sigh I can inject here is a sigh of pleasure when I read your poetry! The last verse is where I reassure you that you're right....I know many things happen in this experience called life but truly, you're as lovely as the song(s) you sing!! |

Like Nancy Lee, I was left with a sad feeling. That, however, is in no way a reflection on your superior word weaving Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
