A ramble of sorts ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There were flames in the sky the weather was off even July can be cold -- {we were use to hearing the trains; their horns echoing the town} its all so tangled In the morning you wake from languid nights pockets full of shells, shifting sand through fingers rubbing, at the same time, stones He left flowers in my name; orchids, white and full of dew as if a smile could change the mountains we have left to embark upon the canvas, the work of art-- {laughing} blue eludes white on white only the rain can make me feel this way I close my eyes shadows of color spread the deafness on the vibrant dance floor I say this because: my knees have need for-- connection of human warmth In all this time I have learned the elegance of life, from the shore you CAN see the swells of the rising tides The moon is up now the water will sleep the wind will whisper the telling signs I stand, still, at the window we are between midnight and darkness waiting The sky is that moment The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket I lean against the wind pretend I am weightless and in this moment I am happy [This message has been edited by Greeneyes (07-09-2002 12:12 AM).] |

Breathtakingly beautiful Lauren. I guess I'm kind of lost for words at the moment! It's always so good coming from you and the way you say it so lovingly. Really really!!!  |

 (smiles) Oh Lauren, this is sooooooo beautifully tranquil, sweet friend, I too love those special transparent moments of solitude and placating and you speak of the elements so well! (kiss on cheek) This is wonderful as always your words are, sweet friend, we all love you so much, YAY!!!  May love and light always shine upon you!

The moon is up now the water will sleep the wind will whisper the telling signs I stand, still, at the window we are between midnight and darkness waiting The sky is that moment ************ So beautiful and full of emotion are your words and you bring them to us on a canvas stretched on a frame of brilliance. You write ... we learn ... you share ... we are blessed. Excellent penning. |

In the morning you wake from languid nights pockets full of shells, shifting sand through fingers rubbing, at the same time, stones He left flowers in my name; orchids, white and full of dew as if a smile could change the mountains we have left to embark upon the canvas, the work of art-- {laughing} blue eludes white on white only the rain can make me feel this way ===================================== The moon is up now the water will sleep the wind will whisper the telling signs I stand, still, at the window we are between midnight and darkness waiting The sky is that moment ===================================== I know you will understand when I say.... for all the words that seem lost inside me... for all the times I mourn the silence of my butterfly muse... I miss him most of all when I read your poetry.. but its also in your words that I find comfort and healing. This exquisite piece of work is sanctuary, thank you for that dear poetess. ======================================= Now for me some words come easy |

Lauren, this is outstanding!! But, I simply delight in reading each and every thing that you write. Like I have said, your words flow so smoothly and with a grace that is simply art in itself. This was a pleasure for my soul........ Open the door and let your adventure begin!!! |

Lauren, I know you are hurting...so just a gentle *bump* If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
