Wavering I am a ripped by this current - the indecision of it splays and splits me, imperfect halves made unevenly by you and you. I almost let it go, sailed it out to sea to drift in the pulling flow, but a sleeper wave brought it in again, to wash my feet with me and me. Dropped it over the pier’s end sure it would swim away, but it caught a ride on a pelican’s back, the bird smiled and gobbled us up, with a one, two and three. © 2002 Core [This message has been edited by Corinne (12-28-2002 07:12 PM).] |

Corrine, I like the way your poems make me think. They are all very good, just like this one. "Love makes the world go around" |

yaknow, I am thinking this is sort of cute in a way...but I'm not sure if you meant it to be. |

I am a ripped by this current - the indecision of it splays and splits me, imperfect halves made unevenly by you and you. pulled into imperfect pieces again and again until we do not know the perfection inside us and feel a failure perhaps... may your halves though seen imperfect be appreciated for what they are... perfect reflections of the desire to love and be loved.... |

Corinie, my long time friend, I have watched your grow and blossom into a great poet. Though I am away too much from computer over most of last year...this year I hope to be here often. Your poems inspire me. I added this one, along with some more of your to my library. I hope this year gives you much peace, love, and laughter. Hugs.....Reddie. You ought to stop by #writingwest sometimes. I have not been there much the past year. Some of the old ones are still there...Love ya' |
