Leave Well Enough Alone I tried to capture The mist of you And it turned Straight into dew Tried to hold The dew of you And it turned into A waters view I put it In the sun To stare There it disappeared In air And I was left With nothings share Which was more Than I could bear |

Ahh Stinkylove.... when the mist of gist only gives you dew... its time to turn it into tea that will set you free I happen to know you have the tea bags. *L* me thinks the dream will be found in the steam Now for me some words come easy |

Sy, there is nothing worse than nothing's share. Stunningly penned though Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Will the "mist" return yet again, with the early morning dew.... only to vanish into thin air, leaving just memories to view? Well writen and expressed Sir....Much enjoyed! ~Sheri |

your writing is always so lovely. I can't think of one that I haven't enjoyed. I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement. |

We can't always feel that which touches us, but we can be moved by the experience and hold onto the moment, making our memories out of them. Loved the way you said this Mr. Tabin~ |
