[On the Eve of] What Comes in Time What came to me, in raucous times ago, Were hues of blues to this poet's green eye, That there be a place I would come to know Where passions and poetry flew so high! At times, seemingly lost, I thought I was At bitter odds with my own cast-off ends But that a muse should hear, then willed me "pause" To unearth heart’s want, where soreness might mend For this sweet craving I have had since youth To convey a falling tears’ salty feel In a place where poets gather, in truth With a worldly family’s love, so real What came in time, 'twas but a poet's dream A place where hesitant hearts bared ~ in trust ~ What stayed in this mind? A melody’s theme With rhythm's delights, and an angel's dust Where moths may flit over bards who might roar While writers of angst, search seekers of truth As mountains find peaked heights, lost souls hunt shores As aged sages find their fountains of youth What came in time, was a place most surreal Where love plus life plus poets, equals Feel. ~*~ June 24, 2003 [This message has been edited by Sunshine (06-24-2003 09:18 PM).] |

Very, very nice Karilea! I sometimes wonder what would have happened if I had consodered writing in an earlier incarnation. (Or, how long I would have continued) Ed |

What came in time, 'twas but a poet's dream A place where hesitant hearts bared ~ in trust ~ What stayed in this mind? A melody’s theme With rhythm's delights, and an angel's dust Where moths may flit over bards who might roar While writers of angst, search seekers of truth As mountains find peaked heights, lost souls hunt shores As aged sages find their fountains of youth What came in time, was a place most surreal Where love plus life plus poets, equals Feel. ==================================== I cant imagine this place without you... I hope we dont ever have to find out... Youve penned a poets anthem with this superb write..and the moth is loving every alliteration and inner rhyme. ![]() Happy Anniversary poetess Sun... thank you for All that you share, teach and give here at pips and to me as friend. You have touched so many here with your poetry and your loving spirit. We grow in your light ![]() ![]() ![]() All I can feel is this distance between you and me. I can say I love you but I can't make you believe me because touching is believing. c.j. [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (06-25-2003 11:03 AM).] |
