 Mexican Sage It was two years ago when I passed by myself and was touched by just a whisper across my arm as I studied discontent Discontent is studied in the dark down the ladder around the curve of no moon At the time I scoffed at leaves dry with the end of autumn curled there in my path and then I was struck by a feather somehow it dusted me and I could feel my attitude fall in brittle pieces around me and when I stepped on them what I felt was joy ------- photo by Martie [This message has been edited by Martie (11-04-2002 04:56 PM).] |

Loved that crunch of joy that can be found threaded through all your work. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Martie, this is so unique and special! I admire your ability to move words and concepts in a circuitous route, through my ofttimes, linear brain! Linda |

MMM, just wipe the dirt and grime of your past away. I dont remeber where I found this, but "Everyone has a good and bad side, but some people have dirty windows. You just have to wipe the dirt away and let the light shine through to them." It is evedent that you have done that. Your poem as a great inspiration to me, I think it might help me Think of my next poem... |

My favorite part was..... "And then I was struck by a feather somehow it dusted me and I could feel my attitude fall in brittle pieces around me and when I stepped on them what I felt was joy" Absolutely beautiful, dear friend. Thank you. Love makes the world go 'round (unkown) |

Excellent, as always, Martie..yes, something as light as a feather's touch can make a difference, can't it? |

He took my words - honest he did, so all I can say is ditto Mike, and isn't it the truth? Wise this was in beauty too. |
