With you, my spirit soars upon love's golden wings above the mountaintops, in mile high majesty, over sparkling streams, I listen forever for your celestial music, the echoing into midnite's dreams, lighting the skies with fireflies and starlight's glow, drumming heart beats inspiring fleet of feet, leaping o'er bold boulders, cymbals cascading symbols of timeless love of life, sky to earth and back again, you play my soul with every note, you are the floor of my inner being, my solid grounding, yet my wings. Palatial pyramids of the past hold less glorious treasure than the music you pour forth from your heart and soul. Surround me with your nature tunes, the cries of midnite loons and gossamer wings, floating things, in mist or fog, rain or snow, it is the same wherever I go. Oh, how my heart sings to the tune of you. Kitaro, my ears hear the heartbeat of nature through the heart of you. [This message has been edited by Midnitesun (11-09-2002 02:25 AM).] |

Beautiful write. I love it...it seams mystical, fantasy-like to me. As a note, as I am a perfectionist, 'oer would be o'er, wouldn't it? *shrugs* Either way you paintin a masterpiece. Thank you for the enjoyment. Stephanie True friends are not those who are with you at the end, but those who helped you through the journey. |

Forgive me, again, for the correction. Once more, I think this is a beau-ti-ful poem.  Yes, how I hate typos. *glares at her keyboard* Whew, too much tea...I'm too awake for this time of night, it's unnatural!*bounce* - Stephanie True friends are not those who are with you at the end, but those who helped you through the journey. |

Ethel, thank you so much. I am always inspired by nature and beautiful music. Ray, glad you could drift on over to the Rockies. Yes, JD wrote and sang of the Rockies, I can't help but think of him at times. Have you listened to much Kitaro? He is totally awesome. Thanks for reading and replying. |

Very Nice I am a Kitaro fan myself this makes me think of his album _Dream_ Which I like best of all since Jon Anderson of YES sings on it. And I am a huge JA and YES fan. You captured for me the mood of that album Merci Eternity |

Hi again Kacy...yeah have listened to alot of kitaro,very dreamy soulful composer.One of the few so called new age types I find real.I agree he can evoke both natures gentle and delicate as well as it's wild and frightening sides with his work.By the way read both of your other offerings this evening and enjoyed them both also.Funny,it might be the middle of your night there yet it's only a little after 11pm here...off with me now before I ramble forever...hope your night and tomorrow bring you much joy. Live like it's your last day... |

Kacy, You put me instantly in the midst of a week-long "rough" camping canoe trip this past June. Thanks for that Ed |

Hi Kacy... your cadence here reminds me of the flow of Silk Road, cascading in ethereal arpeggios of relaxation. Nice work. -MVS "AS ABOVE SO BELOW" |

Kacy this is wonderful...look at all the imagery in this...and I love the subtle rhyme scheme and those alliterations you worked in. Very cool write...emotions expressed on a grand scale. Well done Poetess of the midnite sun No one has ever shown me how to see the world the way I see it now ... |

Thank you to each of you, for your time and replies. If you are ever searching for a soulful, spiritually uplifting music video or DVD, I highly recommend 'Best of Kitaro' (Domo records, 2001.) You will not be disappointed. No, I didn't get paid to promote this  May ripples of LOVE |

No, Kacy it was "rough" only in that we carried all we needed in the canoe, slept on the ground, etc. You know, FUN Ed |

LOL, I never liked sleeping on the ground, though I've done it often. Yep, I've carried a canoe, too, through knobby Cypress trees, under Spanish moss and in the gator infested rivers of Florida. You can take the next trip for me. |
