Disappointments in this life can come in feet and miles The turning into learning is not always met with smiles And I am not so different, a human being first With but one experience, I cannot fear the worst Creatively the spirit will emerge to guide a walk Where openhearted sharing, is foremost in the talk The season now brings to the fore the reasons of each day As time is simply borrowed, never owed, for life to pay And so I choose to build a life embracing what is good A mixture so intuitive conserves the thought it should In making love reality, a solid base to thrive Without such inhibitions, every dream will come alive So building is my forte, without a silver spoon To take from basic urges the wisdom of the moon These values that are forged upon the innocent from birth Take shape within our conscience mind and somehow cast our worth But the interpretation of what was brought to light Begins inside the hearts of man and burns forever bright I am only seeking of the tangential take shape To be bound with honor in relationships of sake I seek no title and no heir to fortunes others hone Not wife or mistress to the depths of surges I don’t own Small within the universe I seek the bells as tolled To ring within the depths of me the snug of hopes enfold Copyright Kkh 12/14/03 [This message has been edited by ThisDiamond (12-14-2003 11:04 PM).] |

"Small within the universe I seek the bells as tolled To ring within the depths of me the snug of hopes enfold" ~ a befitting and lovely ending to a rich and meaningful piece of writing.  EA |

Disappointments in this life can come in feet and miles The turning into learning is not always met with smiles And I am not so different, a human being first With but one experience, I cannot fear the worst Oh wise woman of the northern regions... I bow to the master of wisdom. |

To take from basic urges the wisdom of the moon These values that are forged upon the innocent from birth Take shape within our conscience mind and somehow cast our worth" Thank you Kathleen, that was a wonderful read and a unique choice of words. Very well done, Tony.  |

And so I choose to build a life embracing what is good A mixture so intuitive conserves the thought it should In making love reality, a solid base to thrive Without such inhibitions, every dream will come alive so good to read you, K, embracing what is good  M [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (12-15-2003 08:06 PM).] |
