An Ode To All It wasn’t so much that dreams were made More that in them the stone was laid And in that stone you are etched in me Along with this perfect memory Of hearts and souls linked in hope of such The truth wrapped inside poetic touch And in my dreams you all reside in this A haven of light held in poet’s bliss It’s not that you all gifted me with light More that the touch of each was pure delight And in that touch I felt your wisdom rise Which covers my soul with this gifted prize That from your souls I gained so much The knowledge of wisdom in poet’s touch You flow within the very soul of me And I’ll hold tight to the precious memory It wasn’t so much what I learnt from this That truth and love reside in poet’s kiss That each of you gave me your heart is true But I left a piece of me with all of you That might seem a poor deal to some But the truth is I’ve made of this sum A better brighter totality Than existed before I added your memory To those I met who gifted me with this I send to you now this my poetic kiss Marsha With special love to those who were PiPITIS Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Marsha, Someday. Wish I could have been there too. Nice gifts you exchanged indeed. Including this. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

it isn't so much - but it was more than enough and this sentimental poem shows it. Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Marsha this is absolutely gorgeous writing and it speaks of your heart so profoundly. I wish I could have been there, but through your eyes we can visit that home of poets. Well done. If I have touched one heart through my words, then I have acheived my dream... |

I know I got my very own wonderful ode. *S* But I still wish I could have been part of this "all". *S* Wonderful work, Marsha! |
