Whispering Sight Into the quiet pool of light your voice falls softly Like a whispered dream your words caress me I couldn’t tell we’re 5000 miles apart can you? Not when I can gaze into your eyes of blue My fingers brush across the screen in gentle plea I see your lips open to receive this part of me You smile into my eyes and my heart just flips And my soul soars high while my pulse beat skips Your whispers caress my ears with sibilant delight As I sit here in the puddle of golden light Nothing stirs there’s no one here but you and I Nothing and no one but you to hear my sigh You softly say those words of sweet love again And through the night’s air I hear your pain Our spirits are meshed in a heated embrace While our mortal selves wait to feel desires trace No sounds disturb us while our souls unite Locked together our spirits fly in desire’s flight The light that spills feels like your softest caress As it touches my face with perfect finesse Distance doesn’t count when your soul flies free There’s no distance at all between you and me Time and space mean nothing while I breathe you And while you hold me the fire flows through Marsha Breathe through the heat of our desire Thy coolness and they balm Let sense be dumb let flesh retire Speak through the eathquake wind and fire Oh [This message has been edited by Marsha (06-23-2002 10:30 PM).] |

(smiles) Awwwwwwww, this is soooooo beautiful, sweet friend, yes, distance can never affect love, for me and Joanna live so far apart but I love her so much and every day my love for her only grows because she is a true angel! (kiss on cheek) This is lovely, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Marsha, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Whewwww, I'm safe....my eyes are not blue... Anyway, I KNOW that all you want to do is send a wench across the pond to give me fits over my poetry. Trying yet again to get me to back off a little bit... Sorry, darling girl. But you are getting toooooo good now for me to back off. Sooo, that means the pressure is on, the ball is in your court...and the fire is burnin' bright over here at the edge of the big pond.... (Magnus exits, thinking of his next write...one that will make Mushy have fits..) |

Marsha, you know I hardly ever have time to run over here to PIP. And when I do, there's too much to read. But this is definitely worth the trip. Lovely old fashioned romantic poem for the techie age(which I haven't actually entered yet!) Nan |

Marsha, sister of my heart, this is a heart throb for sure. I have had experience with loving across miles and when your souls are connected and your love is strong, neither miles nor time nor anything else matters. You wrote this beautifully, dear one, as you always do. You surely made me "feel it" Keep up the good work, darlin' girl, I think you're on a roll!!! Pepper |

Marsha, don't fret about lacklustre response -- I get it all the time. It doesn't mean people don't enjoy yr poems, it just means things get lost quickly. I'm glad this one could be found again. These smiling eyes are just a mirror for the sun. |

As we say in Texas, "this is so romatical!" Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Marsha, What bsquirrel said is true; poems get caught in the pour of work placed on the sight. Your poem is excellent and you knew it was you just wanted to make sure I read it. Well it was a delight to read and you are a very talented poetess. It’s not quite an epopee but you are certainly capable of writing one. |

comes a gentle night of a voice in lines that binds a spirit and stops all Time. No day is done no night: complete until we are read between the sheets. ~ ~ ~ The power that words have: to span infinite distance and blaze an open heart these are words and power you have, Marsha. They touch they are felt jeff [This message has been edited by ShadowRider (06-24-2002 10:32 PM).] |

Mushy, Yup...romantic, just as I expected! With an unrealistic approach that actually difines the depth of their life. Which come to think of it...sounds awfully close to home. Hmmmm.... Yup I thought so. Show you care to those you love...today. |

mmmm Marsha, you have brought back so many golden memories, and there is so much truth in these wonderful words. You ALWAYS write with such beauty and truth. Hugs from here. Enjoy life, this is NOT a dress rehearsal. |
