A Rainbows End I walked along a sandy shore Where waves implode upon its floor Circled round my bare foot enter Cooling sun the heats tormentor. Schooled my mind to transient lie And lifts me like a butterfly. Upon the wayward sifting clouds Those many-colored drifting shrouds And there I search the mist of dream The stitching of its very seem The life and blood of my escape Within its folds of velvet drape An awe that stays behind a door An awe that calls aloud for more An awe that is the mental link An awe that rules my very think And I that struggle towards my soul Have found in it a rainbows goal. |

The stitching of its very seem the word play on stitching/seam/seem is just what Im talking about. The life and blood of my escape Within its folds of velvet drape  how lovely is that!!! *winkiewinkie*    [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (08-05-2002 07:43 AM).] |

Rainbows are ribbons Of light fantastic Tied to the rain Before and after Bows in the morning Before Bows in the evening After |

JM, I forgot how early butterflies get up. I hope the flowers greet your day and offer nectar on the way. In other words I wish you well and would a visit for a spell. Randy wants to kiss you too. You know dragons, what can I do? Winkiewinkie Randy Stinky |

Seymour - the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. It's there, only if one would look for it. You have and have written about it well... BC |
