Listening to every heart

0 posted 2002-06-24 02:37 PM




To think our sun would
leave
then darkness would
encompass all

...and I, in dark of night,
to feel for the candle,
to touch the unlit wick

there, in false dark
pondering if my wondering
would bring the flame to me...

knowing that
without action,
without that spark
ignited,

I would continue alone
in the dark

until, that is,
the come of morn
and in the first light
of your eyes…

to see the flame
that was there all along…

Ah, let us hope that our Sunshine never fades, I don't think I could stand the darkness.  Beautiful Karilea.....just beautiful.....

Enjoy life, this is NOT a dress rehearsal.
