~*~ You were the words to my poetry, not so long ago. Something about love inspired, far beyond the look in your eyes. A promenade in private with a purpose and a sigh, we moved in a circle of two finding ways to keep warm in the rain. I felt safe in your arms wide open to possibilities the sky was the limit, seemingly endless. But as sure as the sun sets in the west you slipped away like silk in a heart beat, without a ripple. You made it look easy to pull strings then watched me come undone. It's been a long time gone and I'll never love that way again. But I survived the unraveling, in case you ever doubted me. ~*~ |

But I survived the unraveling, in case you ever doubted me. That you have Ms Blues...you go girl! Maree Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

"You were the words to my poetry, not so long ago. Something about love inspired, far beyond the look in your eyes." So does that make us fools for love AND poetry??? |

Melancholic, but so very beautiful. And be sure, dear friend, that you will love again ... and maybe more than you did. Love and hugs. Margherita |

"You were the words to my poetry, not so long ago. Something about love''' ~~ that makes it so unforgettable, at times heart wrenching, but worth it....I have no doubt it will touch you again.... ~~**~~ |

A promenade in private with a purpose and a sigh, we moved in a circle of two finding ways to keep warm in the rain. ======================================= Classic Bluesy-girl poetry. this is a bittersweet beauty Lori. looking back in the memories...while looking ahead in the lessons learned. We grow with every goodbye. Home is a feeling I buried in you ... |

Lori, it's so good to read you again. I especially loved these two verses.... I felt safe in your arms wide open to possibilities the sky was the limit, seemingly endless. But as sure as the sun sets in the west you slipped away like silk in a heart beat, without a ripple. Hugs, Ethel |

But as sure as the sun sets in the west you slipped away like silk in a heart beat, without a ripple. ~*~ Great metaphor, excellent imagery in this... surely it slipped, but left behind the survivor, who stands tall... Well done, m'dear |

Thank you Ethel and Karilea for your kind words. I'm kinda partial to the endless ripple myself. So glad to see you two here. ~Hugs~ |
