Sweet breeze summers' eve hint of honey suckle b-r-e-a-t-h-e me into you Hand upon your fate unlatch the gate clink clank one foot in front of the other keep walking steady pace Let me gaze upon your face Your feet they tread petals of rose freshly laid for you A new soul sigh "Look at me. Do not be afraid. You are here for a spell, I can tell by your eyes, timid and frayed. Reach into my pocket please needle and thread is all I need." I'll attempt to retract the pain intact bestowed upon you Feast of not food but your soul which you have been knawing on since birth "I know why you are here. You are still in shock since you lifted that lock . . . Look behind you - the way you came. My friend, the path no longer remains. Here and now you reside with me for awhile, my child." Take my arm Let us stroll and relax detach . . . [This message has been edited by littlewing (06-01-2003 10:18 PM).] |

Dear Sue, I had missed you! Aren't we all feeling at times as if life was the true Purgatory? You write with great mastery and you give profound emotion ..... I deeply feel with you. Exceptional pace! Hugs. Margherita  |

I loved the ideas and images in this one. I also enjoyed the use of "sigh". I felt I could move with the peom. Make your words as sweet as honey, someday you may have to eat them. |

 (smiles) This is beautifully touching, sweet friend, God Bless You, this may just be purgatory and therefore things have to detach sometimes but indeed our loved ones are what last forever! (kiss on cheek) I love this, sweet friend, you can find shades of heaven here, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |
