Twisting the heart as unknowns collide the door of reason...Shaping the eve into darkness that humbles even the brightest star....shimmering beyond the sight of anguish. Wrestled, pinned to the welcome mat of life as battles rage beyond the horizon...as Bell rings and hope hangs by a single thread... Awaiting the last snip... If only the scissor’s blade would swiftly close upon the string of clutch, cutting the apron’s bow and bid adieu.... Peace, be well.....for the coffers are dry... And tears no longer well the eye of one who once wept in shame..... |

Barry your poetry always leaves me feeling as though there aren't words enough to describe how lovely, how profound, how elegant.... you write as the Old Masters painted... incomparably, with few equals. Hugs Caroline the only man worth your tears will never make you cry |

"Peace, be well.....for the coffers are dry... And tears no longer well the eye of one who once wept in shame....." The image of Rett Butler and Scarlotte O'Hara appeared to me (when Rett speaks his famous lines, "Frankly, Scarlotte, . . . .") when I read these lines. Oh yes, there were some dark days! Always enjoy reading you. |

Twisting the heart as unknowns collide the door of reason...Shaping the eve into darkness that humbles even the brightest star....shimmering beyond the sight of anguish. Love this, Barry~ There comes a time, and you wrote it so well. |
