Come down oh slanted ray of light seep into the portal cross the divide and take this fright bitter bitter taste of morning where all the joy is going My words feel like wet rags used again and again to hold the moon she paved the path last and said just let go the heavy slant of eye and fly But you are so far away I say to no one in particular and I can’t find the signs anymore of love sans gold all is falling falling into disrepair and I have lost my hold Can curled body find relief or just one song like I believe from the front row of memories room sing me sweet then into tune I am harmony unglued and left to scatter seeking wings to fly is what’s the matter |

My words feel like wet rags used again and again to hold the moon she paved the path last and said just let go the heavy slant of eye and fly But you are so far away I say to no one in particular and I can’t find the signs anymore of love sans gold all is falling falling into disrepair and I have lost my hold Can curled body find relief or just one song like I believe from the front row of memories room sing me sweet then into tune I am harmony unglued and left to scatter seeking wings to fly is what’s the matter ============================== You will already know I felt every word of this... You can have me mothywings..they are singed, torn and tattered..but they always fly towards the warm... and know the way home to the heart.   You're the best I've ever felt ... it's so wrong not to be with you. It's getting harder to stay away, it stops my heart just to be with you.

Now I'm thinking of that Carol King song. "So far away, doesn't anyone live in one place anymore. It would be so nice to see your face at my door." James |

Dear Martie, your whispers of woes go straight to the hearts of all those who love you--and your poetry. An angel of this earth, such as yourself, cannot stay aloft forever. One must land from time to time and endure the slings and arrows--making the next flight that much sweeter! Love & Eternal Light, Linda |

"I am harmony unglued and left to scatter seeking wings to fly is what’s the matter" I am so often at a loss to reply to your work. I read you and feel all turned inside out, and I know you know my heart. Thank you Martie. |

....what a touching poem. Here's hoping that you find those wings, and that nothing you hope for will be as remote from you as it must have felt when you wrote this tender moodsong. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
