Kansas Sighs Not until the cottonwood Carries green again Not until the winds from south Care to bare again Not until the storms have rent Totality’s aftermath That Kansas sighs are heard full song A low moan less its wrath ~*~ Come to greet this dawn again Give tilt to this full day Watch the heat come seek the sky And bubble up what may Come nightfall the storms appear In gold and gray and blast And one knows the hand of God Shall never quit its task ~*~ Now comes the gentle fall of snow In late day's spring sunlight But ne'er is there the gloom of chill Though the lawn is laden white It bodes of warmer days to come When wheat shall bend in gold It brings forth thoughts of stars in sky And campfires hear stories told ~*~ Not until the cottonwood Carries green again Not until the winds from south Care to bare again Not until the storms have rent Totality’s aftermath That Kansas sighs are heard full song A low moan less its wrath |

Watch the heat come seek the sky And bubble up what may What a beautiful sigh in your sky~ This reads like a summer day in golden glow. Clicking my heels, there's no place like home. (had a temporary lapse, and almost forgot my lines)  So pretty, really. [This message has been edited by BluesSerenade (05-14-2003 10:51 PM).] |

Karilea's Kansas makes me sigh...  So incredibly beautiful--but 'twas written by poetess beyond compare, so its beauty is not so incredible afterall! Sunny hugs, EA |

Well done! Well done! You folks who haven't been to Kansas, read again....this is it exactly. "Come to greet this dawn again Give tilt to this full day Watch the heat come seek the sky And bubble up what may" ....and those lines my favorites of all... Reading them I can absolutely see it again. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

"Not until the cottonwood Carries green again Not until the winds from south Care to bare again" Beautifully descriptive, Karilea. The flow and imagery within this piece are delightful and set the mood well. 'Tis a  for sure! Best wishes and hugs, /Kit |
