(Just some lonely thoughts of Joanna I had, missing her lately and wanting to have her so badly!) Eve Swimming By: Noah Eaton 9/9/02 "As kingfishers catch fire, dragonflies draw flame!" Haunted remindings of a poet fill these skies tonight Two-thousand miles away I wonder if you see the stars swimming Like salmon fleets across a ravine of ice If I could find an oasis in the heart of Polaris I would drench these wings in cream and dance on your balustrade Dance in your arms While the moonlight permeates Slow motion... I feel your breath from miles away Wallowing in these Poppies of July Blood of angels tears waiting for the rain Slow motion... Christening with your tears Where the God of Wine Lathers the illusion of you as you appear... "I know that's a secret, but it's whispered everywhere!" Some wise poet encouraged me What's the sound of one clapping, I dare not say I still can't discern these secrets you privately speak Because I'm glissading, flying just to hold you Fighting the fire of the oracle Wanting to hold you so badly, sweet Lady of Shalott, where your breath is the sound of an oriole Slow motion... I feel your breath from miles away Wallowing in these Poppies of July Blood of angels tears waiting for the rain Slow motion... Christening with your tears Where the God of Wine Lathers the illusion of you as you appear... Slow motion... I feel your breath from miles away Wallowing in these Poppies of July Blood of angels tears waiting for the rain Slow motion... Christening with your tears Where the God of Wine Lathers the illusion of you as you appear... . . . . . . . . . . Floating... Camouflaged... Lost in space... Drifting... Fading... Lost in space... Floating... Camouflaged... Lost in space... Drifting... Fading... Lost in space... Floating... Camouflaged... Lost in space... Drifting... Fading... Lost in space... "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." Shakira [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (09-09-2002 10:56 PM).] |

I think you need a Joanna "fix." She does inspire you, though, and that's good for us  Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

I really like the repetition in this one, and the slow fade-out is superb. Well done. Hope things cheer up soon. Nan(Pilgrim variety) |

Noah...this is a beautiful expression of longing. You have such a command of the english language for one so young it often times lives me in utter awe. Here's hoping you and Joanna can be together soon |

Ahhh sweet Noah, another beauty of a love poem. Well done. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |
