i walk in nonsensical direction in warmth of the mid afternoon sun carelessly casting my shadow before me, leading myself, as it were, to nowhere, anywhere but here and now, without wind to guide me, moved forward by curiosity, and dull intuition, and the invisible the shadows that cling to fragments of memory. behind sunglasses, true color paints my sleepy canvas for a while i amuse myself with nothingness, reading only between the lines of the crumbling sidewalk and cobblestones of backstreet then something inside awakens me to the universe and for a moment, i see heaven…. still a poet wonders how to write… the seasons blend together under the warm Oahu winter sun Poetry is: Passion, imagination and intellect running together. Aloha with warmest regards, Cheryl Stewart Koomoa [This message has been edited by CSKpoet (01-15-2003 07:20 PM).] |

Oh yes - a WARM winter sun... Be careful with that shadow before you - It means you're headed east... That could be hazardous to all that warmth if you go too far.... Lovely warm words here, Cheryl... |

Speaking of pretty ladies I love that pic. It's a bit chilly here today as well. Could you send a soft wind of paradise this way to warm things up? The poem is lovely.. |

(sigh) I just go wherever the wind takes me, that is how I get my poetic inspiration however skeptically mundane or bizarre it may appear! (big hugggssssssss) This is marvelous, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Cheryl, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you!
