she smiles sings herself softly into the consciousness of a suit she smiles he frowns making his way back to metal and concrete she smiles pigeons scatter gathering feathers loose barefoot in the grass she smiles lost rebuilding wings |

Wow. Just.... wow.... Maybe one day I'll find the strength to imitate this. Until then, and after, I am in awe of your talent. Kielo |

oh god Raph I love this...like you have said many a time..if my tear ducts were working they'd be flowing like niagara falls .. If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried. |

I agree with Karilea, I really like this style from you. Time and time again your strength of a writer shines in all themes/styles. You blended a common angel theme with a unique theme and as always this poem is perfectly consise with power. Damn when I grow up I want to write just like you I'm saving this, it's one of your best.....then again I'm biased I think that everything you write is da bomb! Melissa~ Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world! |

ironically its the tender part that you don't see that gets me sad/angry enough to see the dark part you do see..thanks to all for the kind words |
