The ceilings are all glass, until the clouds let light shine through Like beams from heaven smiling, and I fear I have not strength Enough to gather them into this basket of lofty dreams In shards, to fall so sharply on my mind Occurrences of fate and flattery, untaken Like beacons to be followed And every storm gives rise A little higher to the skies And I look up With open eyes Into the sun Copyright Kkh 11/17/02 |

Very nicely done Kathy, great images and a sense of almost being overwhelmed, yet looking into the sun, knowing that another day will come again...a brighter day... |

This Diamond~ Lovely words Reference was made that your poem looked like a basket, but I look at it from the bottom up and it reminds me of a pyramid and you are sitting on the top looking up, " Reaching for Heaven " Maybe I'm just weird. Thanks for sharing...Paul [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (11-20-2002 04:25 AM).] |
