*~Beyond the Bend~* Sitting there veiled in a state bewildered, confused, sad and alone no friend nor home is near to you just a yearning for what is dear gazing outward into mist of night across the etchings of concrete lines where once drawn in pastel hues of love known to you as true now faded onto concrete rock... The underworld if truth be known can sometimes be a lonely place each passing night you lay awake in restless sleep wondering all the while if you will trust again you often choose to seek retreat inside the dream of what could be ahead of you beyond the bend where new beginnings shall one day unfold... *~coco~* |

hmmpphhhh - I thought this was going to be a poem about Balladeer or Toerag or both of them being around the bend, over the hill, gone to weeds, etc. Instead, you write this pretty poem that's not about either of them (except the title, of course). Nice piece of writing though. |

LngJhnAg... I can't stop giggling at what you write though I must admit you've got a sweet thought of PoetFriend Balladeer/Toerag "beyond the bend" as it could make an interesting poem GentleSpirit... you're a sweetheart PoetFriend Thanx4stopping by *~smiles2u*~ [This message has been edited by CocoBaci (12-16-2003 03:31 PM).] |

SweetSweetPoetFriends, you're sooooooooo special and dear2me... I've missed every1of you a whole bunch this past while but truth is as cliche as this may sound "you're ALWAYS in my heart" wherever the path takes me one thing has never changed and that is YOU, my PoetFriends, are a constant in my life and I'm just tickled pink that things are settling down so that I may be around here for many days/months/years to come... HeartHugs2u ~*1slick, NakdThoughts, Kristabell, Serenity, Marge, Aimster and JanetMarie... |

I'm glad I went looking for you, this is such a beautiful poem Missy, that runs true to life for many I'm sure. Aww... but your title says it all, there's no telling what lies around the bend. I wish you joy and good cheer, CocoBaci~ |
