Day’s audacity drains me in winding swells Oh, to be caressed in time’s slowest hands I drink fever rapidly and drown in gentle quells Stirring sweet halcyon orange scented lands This hourglass sifts me in particular sands I melt stolen moments into jeweled felicity Where dreams can’t glaze this precious strand pearling sweet notions vignette of discovery What more beyond this door should enable me this pure release of wingless savoir-faire But that which tunes my soul into sensuality with gauzy notes phantasmal in thinnest air My most intimate voice now rhymes with fruition rising ever more clearly beyond seventh note visions

  (smiles) Oh Regina, this is sooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, I just love the gorgeous words you write, yes, always sing the symphonies of your heart to the highest notes possible and let them flow like some Wagnerian opera that flows only with such rhythm and a melody never phlegmatic to the ear! (kiss on cheek) This is graceful, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Regina, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

The spirit of the soul to achieve happiness is brought about through the mindset of self assuredness and the pure desire to gain knowlege of life in the most measureable of ways. Beautiful are your words and the conviction of strength really radiates in this piece. I missed that it was a sonnet completely. I suppose that I need to study them so as to recognize all the different styles. I admire anyone who can write sonnets. I haven't even tried "one" of any style yet. Recognize love for the gift it is and not a need that is out of focus. [This message has been edited by Mark Bohannan (07-16-2002 09:43 AM).] |

rwood, Well, I do believe you've reached beyond the 7th note here, my poet friend, but if not you have still a greater understanding of your inner potental. Very nicely composed verse. -Bob [This message has been edited by Lighthousebob (07-16-2002 12:48 PM).] |

ah yes. . . I knew that you could take a form and make it your own. . . you've done that here. . . hidden the mechanics of it in words that fill the mind. . . wonderfully done. . . --------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
