You are the space surrounding my heart ache scattered like puzzle pieces contours and soft edges dreamscapes of blue appealing to me. Silent murmurs entwine insistent as a steady breeze billowing through the window of my mind skimming over the sea releasing the churning within. Immersed in the rise and fall as deep and wide as the waves that roll in full aware, of my fluttering soaring in the shadows of lost lovers you are my favorite song, and all that inspires me. Slow dancing across my thoughts ever silent and swift in your movements you are minutes at a time, the essence of my ecstasy the back drop of my peace and serenity. You are the glimmer of hope, glistening in the middle of the night shape shifting my calm with intent befitting in the moonlight. You are my sky in the stars the view from my eyes a place in heaven, slipping in you are my passion in disguise an unsolved mystery to me. ~*~ [This message has been edited by BluesSerenade (05-03-2003 04:33 PM).] |

BluesSerenade...The imagery in this poem is just astounding. But the full impact of emotion is felt through each carefully chosen word. This piece is BRILLIANT!!!! ***Ivy Rose |

Wow I have only been here a short while but at every turn there is another beautiful piece of poetry. Nothing inspires me more than great talent, and it has been awhile since I have been inspired so. BluesSerenade this is a very lovely poem. “You are my favorite song.” And the way three of your stanzas start with “You are” remind me of a poem that I wrote titled “Your My Everything” which I will post. It doesn’t compare to your beautiful poem, but hey, part of why we’re here is to learn right? I’m looking forward to seeing what other treasures lie around the bend... Take Great Care, Richy |

Creating s again, are you? Richy, you have it so right... one of the biggest fortunes you will find here in Passions, is one poet, inspiring another... and this, on her 3,000th post... Aren't we smiling now! |

'Slow dancing across my thoughts ever silent and swift in your movements you are minutes at a time, the essence of my ecstasy the back drop of my peace and serenity.' You're writing some great poetry! Must be the ocean air... ! |

Beautiful! This has a tidal ebb and flow to it which parallels the imagery. Very nicely done. |

Lori, this is so beautiful...all of it..... but this just reached out and grabbed me.... You are the glimmer of hope, glistening in the middle of the night shape shifting my calm with intent befitting in the moonlight. May be the moonlight and me conjuring up thoughts in my mind of me and my Honey-Love... Hugs, Ethel |

I could not possibly dissect this piece to pick a single line or set of lines, as the entire poem would be posted in my comment. You certainly have the imagery all together in this one and congratulations also on posting of 3,000. Your poetry adds so much to these forums and you are of course one of my favorites.

THIS, is what I mean by your newfound "voice". Your BluesSerenades become clearer, more melodic. (just look at the comments that your writes are receiving) yep. |

Tweety~ Thanks for the wink, I knew you would understand my song. Kacy~ Shift shapers have a way of changing things, that's for sure, as long my calm doesn't get away from me I'm in good shape. Thanks. [This message has been edited by BluesSerenade (05-04-2003 02:24 PM).] |

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Lori, this is wonderful, sweet friend, and perhaps the space around will always be somewhat of a mystery but I'd rather go on vacation there then have to fear getting lost again! (smiles) This is sooooooo lovely, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lori, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |

If I were asked to write something, just one thing in my life, this would have been it. If ever words could love, these do. If ever heart and soul could be put on paper, you’ve placed them there. If ever someone could touch another, you’ve done it here. You’ve done everything in one piece that I’ve strived to do in many. I bow to the master. jwesley |

"You are the glimmer of hope, glistening in the middle of the night shape shifting my calm with intent befitting in the moonlight." That's a really good strophe poet... |
