I heard to-day a meadow lark sadly understood it's song. Inhaled the fragrance of a rose left the blossom where it belonged. Beheld the set of orange sherbert sun honoured the quiet rising of the moon. Stared in awe at heaven's shooting stars~ bedding down in clouds too soon. I heard this eve a nightbird's call wistfully understood it's yearning. To capture elusive lasting love Before this grand world stops turning. . . . Chris Barker May 29, 2004 ~~~~ |

Soft as the brush of velvet across the fingertips. Tender in its yearning. Lovely. Smiles -- Susan The whole of the Universe resides within each individual heart. |
