Love doesn't just die. It lingers on like glowing embers of a night fire slowly losing the energy that made it so intense. like deadly drops of ice water, too many hurts, misunderstandings and selfish drives gradually squelch its warmth leading to the inevitable morning of its demise. And there is no rekindling that can ever start it again! without surrender, be on good terms with all persons... [This message has been edited by Sunshine (10-05-2002 06:14 PM).] |

I believe this may be the first poem of yours that I have read. It is very well done! Welcome to your new extended family! P.S. This poem would have looked good centred. When writing out a poem, check the Formatting area above the writing box and change the alignment from Left to Centre. Then preview your poem before you submit it so that you can be sure that it will look the way you would like it to appear. Looking forward to reading more of your work! Earth Angel |

Earth Angel, thanks also thanks for the advise re: alignment. I went back in thr. the editing icon after your post to me but able to find the center. When time allows I might just go in and delete the whole thing and start fresh. As soon as I saw it in print I was disappointed, because you are right; much better centered which is how it originally was when I first wrote it. And thanks for the welcome. I just read your senryu...so good..it is perfect. You are so talented, thanks for sharing it with us. without surrender, be on good terms with all persons... |

R2U...Hope you don't mind, but I went ahead and centered it for you...you can go back into "edit" and see how I did it, and then in the future, you, too, will have the secret! Nice read! |

To Sunshine, Thank you so much. Though the poem comes on-screen I can't get the messages to come up on my screen; so I went into print and all the messages(posts) follow the poem. I truly appreciate you centering for me. I can barely see the icons on this webtv, tho. pics always look good. So, still not sure of the how-to, after it was posted. Looks so much nicer. God Bless You without surrender, be on good terms with all persons... |

Hello, Regards2you....I'm new here, too, but everybody just kind of takes us new ones under their wings, don't they? Everybody here is so kind and loving, don't you think? I've said it quite often the last few days, but this site is truly amazing to me. It truly is a "family of friends". I'm so glad to be a part of it. By the way, I can tell by your writing that you have a lot of love inside. Thanks for sharing it with us. Best Wishes, Ethel...........garysgirl |
