In Your Poetic Mind

0 posted 2003-01-18 01:21 PM



Maybe green like my eyes
flowers in a notebook--pressed time
stolen heart
born            to angels wings

soft lavender

light of   my   convictions

I sing not of what
love means

There are no windows—just 'panes',

I can see  leaves            falling,
demanding my attention
I will dream;
   walk gently
in tones of a lost lover


spilling the words:

Dante will mend
       stone palms
subtle as the whisperer
dreaming of escape


Ripples in distant waters move
in shadows of splash--   those, there,
tears on a page
lyrical still

A    blade of light   {pure} drawn in shades
    of    blue       roses mirror   eye  reflections    

gold smears the shape

  sky will never fill
               midnights   veil

in your hands       lilies,            


        light can not bend
photos of the ghost
before he died
taken by        crystal rain


I sing to life
To it's tragic beauty
To pain and strife
Let all that dances through me
The rise and the fall, I lived through it all

(smiles) Oh Lauren, this is beautiful, sweet friend, this made me cry to see the two colors coming together like two glass blowers kisses, making a piece of art the grandest church would accept for its bay window! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet firend, I love this, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lauren, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

This is really very, very good.
I enjoyed the view and the colors and the sentiment.

Thanks, Pat

Lauren,
There you are...and in living color. Wonderful. Miss ya'.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

I was reborn on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay
Virginia hasn't yet faded away
I keep thinking tomorrow is coming today
So I am endlessly waiting

Lauren, beautifully written and very thought provoking.  

The stars will shine when I am gone,
the earth will turn on as before,
the gulls, still race along the shore,
the morning star, still kiss the dawn

I have read such thoughts ...
the ache in past works,
no time ever seems right.

    I have gazed upon
       such lifefelt pane ...
          touched by the view
             clouded by your rain

                 lost in the mist of you.

You always amaze me Lauren. I wish I had a quarter of the talent you have... you write so beautifully.
