We Aspired |

We aspired, to build a bridge across the waters holding out the hand of friendship to those who had touched our hearts. Perhaps we had aimed too high we did not know yet we launched the cry into the wilderness waiting for the answering echo of sibling minds Across the waters came the response we will come! We will come! and they did in all their shapes and sizes bringing their dreams and hopes to mingle with ours to raise the voice of poetry in sound and echo that resounded around the world The echoes fade soft in the autumn air yet the bricks of friendship cemented by this time together will last forever We aspired and in aspiring we soared to the stars and found a link of hands that made the waters redundant and built a bridge, that will stand forever and never be broken. We aspired and we aspire still, that the flame will be carried from generation to generation across the bridge of time. Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown [This message has been edited by Kethry (09-30-2002 01:37 PM).] |

From aspirations come reality. This is what keeps the stars in the sky. Thank you. What light through yon window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. |

This is wonderful writing, Kethry. Yes, we aspired and we brought those aspirations to reality. Now, when I see your words on the screen, I'll see the big smile you always wear on your face, hear the written words in your voice, and watch your hands create the lines on the screen. There is no price on that...thank you, and all the rest, for being there. |

Kethry~ you are one voice that I am sure speaks for many. I am so happy that you all came together and joined hands, and simply made it happen. You inspire the best of the best in poetic writing and share the gathering of friendship all around. |

Keth, you were the caretaker of our needs. It was a real pleasure to have met you dearest lady. I'm home after a tiresome trip, it feels strange not to be in Florida anymore, time passed too quickly. Love to you and all others This is some poem you wrote lady!!! Titia Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |

OhKethry~ 'The echoes fade soft in the autumn air yet the bricks of friendship cemented by this time together will last forever' If no other words were written from this gathering ... your words say it all~ You already 'know' how this would have touched me ... YES ... these tears easily flow ... and they are tears-of-joy at having met YOU dearest friend~ Bill and I think it would just be a splendid idea for you to come again and stay LONGER (shy little critter that you are) LOL ! This write is so lovely ... expressing thoughts that we all maintain ... but perhaps could not pen so beautifully~ Dearest Lady ... you are sooooooooooooo loved AND sooooooooooooooo lovely~ *HUGS* ~*Marge & Bill*~ |
