Lost and Found By Paul Wilson This game I play with words of rhyme Captured in the grasp of time The moment has past… the word is lost Who now will pay the cost A thousand stories left untold These words of rhyme I couldn’t hold Get a quill and write them down Hurry now… while they still can be found A fleeting glimpse of long ago A look to the future the mind will show Close your eyes and open your mind You might be surprised what you find Follow the dreams of poets past Share your words for they vanish too fast Let your heart be the pad Writing the dreams we’ve all had Tomorrow brings another day Listen closely hear what I say Another journey we will start Come with me it’s time to depart "To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you" [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (08-28-2003 07:08 PM).] |

A thousand stories left untold These words of rhyme I couldn’t hold Get a quill and write them down Hurry now… while they still can be found Paul, this is so beautiful. The way most writers actually feel. ![]() Hugs ![]() Ethel |

very well done......your line of "share the words, for they vanish too fast.....couldn't have come at a better time for me. I've posted a poem here in the last few days that I've been debating on whether or not to give it to the intended person. I know if I dont'.......it will never be said. Maybe its time to do so. You are right.......they do vanish too fast and then all you are left with is regret. |

HopeS...Thanks for reading.I'm sort of like you, I wrote 1 poem and for 2 years didn't write another one. I find that writing really helps me get in touch with my inner self and when the words come it's like I can't write them fast enough.Thanks for your reply...Paul Ethel...You are so right about this is how most writers feel. Sometime we search and search for our poems and can't ever seem to find the right words and at other times they flow like the wind. Thanks for the read and as always your sweet reply...Paul Seymour...Thank you for reading and your reply. Glad you enjoyed it...Paul Lisaann...I'm so glad you took the time to read and I hope that special someone you mentioned hears what you are saying in your poem.Thanks for your reply and I hope all works out okay...Paul "To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you" [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (08-28-2003 07:20 PM).] |

![]() (big hugggssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, I believe too in always writing whatever we feel because then our loved ones and children will always know and feel what we all were like and leave our hearts behind so they can sing our songs! (smiles) This is lovely, sweet friend, write on, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Paul, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |
