It Came on Wing It came on wing of air soft-tuned waif of thought loomed by mother’s willing knot and the minutes daring sky dark tossed Saying now is in between of see a place of dream and slanted time and if you open mind of eye past goodbye to winged caprice where peace holds eager at arms length you’ll see around the curve of grace the lovely of a missing face I know this thought is fulsome want and bids to see past seem of real to peel the skin between the strands such faith is hard sometimes to feel I’ve seen this bless of rip in fabric all stitched down with stretch elastic to leave the room of bright lit tone to find a song no not alone but filled with fabric cinched not severed between the clouds I’ve seen forever --------- from 12-02 with wishes of peace and love to all of you and thanks for friendship given. |

Martie, my dear, I am making a resolution... never to read your poetry in my mind alone. No. It needs a voice, and you give it the space, and care, and time, to do just so. I marvel at your ability... and I still want to know how you do it. God Bless you... and may God bless your Christmas and family gatherings....and see you into the New Year. |

I am always in awe of skills I do not possess. You are an awesome poet and a brilliant light who makes visions previously unseen appear and become real. Blessed be your Solstice Sweet Lady of the Western Gate. |

I’ve seen this bless of rip in fabric all stitched down with stretch elastic to leave the room of bright lit tone to find a song no not alone but filled with fabric cinched not severed between the clouds I’ve seen forever And your sharing has blessed us all. *S* Wishing you and yours a wonderful Christmas!!! |

Martie, Thank you for this. Sunshine said something in her reply about your voice, something about your writing connects as if was spoken aloud, or whispered. I don't pretend to understand, I just accept it. Best wishes for the holidays, and the years ahead. Doc |

I was trying to decide which piece I liked most, then I kept finding myself coming back to... and bids to see past seem of real to peel the skin between the strands such faith is hard sometimes to feel... Beautifully written, Martie. Tony. [This message has been edited by Antonio_L (12-22-2003 01:32 AM).] |

Excelent poetry....I love how you play with word arrangement in this poem, the reader must pay attention or they might get lost, but if they do they will see the picture of the content come into beautiful focus...enjoyed reading this poem _______ice ><> |
