The Joining It’s a deep and residing Internal throbbing, When a poet is museless, No pondering, no wandering, a Quagmire of quandary, Where thoughts are amiss But rambling strife rampant, Knowing you want to go ~ somewhere ~ Not knowing where it might lead, Or even why one would take That road… Yet, that road is taken, In search of what’s missing inside, To where spirits are held Traveling in thoughts on tides Floating into the heart of dreams To rest in that special ~someplace~ Where a soul can find peace And even a muse can find sweet release... Perhaps it’s a ying and yang ideal Half of me in search of muse, Half of muse, in search Of me? Possibly, quite possibly… Does she follow in my footsteps, Or am I in search of her? Would he know me by my touch, Or does he rest, Quite assured, that I might stumble And in my plummet, Be lifted by my muse’s arms Ascend to highest summit… Reaching for a plateau Where poet and muse become As one, A subtle realization That this journey together Has just begun.... Oh, does she read my secret thoughts, Does he feel all that I hold inside? We shall walk this path together ~Searching~ Muse and poet... Side by side. Muse, my muse, abide with me, Step by step into destiny, Whether we walk, or fly, Shine, or cry, Muse, my muse, please, abide with me. ~*~ Gentle Spirit & Sunshine 04-28-03 [This message has been edited by Sunshine (04-29-2003 02:12 PM).] |

This describes the need to write so well. And your writing blended so beautifully, it left me guessing just who wrote what. Great write! Shenachie [This message has been edited by Bridget Shenachie (04-29-2003 03:29 PM).] |

Each line resounds Reaching beyond bounds A paean to one who leads us Two minds joined in joyous Offering thought that hounds Your writing oozes into the soul, warming and gentling. Ken Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

Sorry folks, but the honor was simply all mine. As busy as Donna has been - as mute as she claims her MUSE to have been, we coincidentally stumbled over a line that we both had to have...and the situation being what it was, the muse held our hands together while we traveled this wayward road... so thank you all for your generous comments and time to read, and understand what's it like when two poets won't let go of the same line... ... |

Yes, Karilea and Donna, quite magic! And 35000 posts just leaves me speechless ... 35000 sunrays touched as many souls dancing on poet's wings through this enchanted forest known as Passions in Poetry. Love, Margherita |
