Brighter Blue and Green The grass seems greener on my rise It always strikes me with surprise It is not greener this I know It’s only mind that makes it so The sky seems bluer each days rise It always strikes me with surprise It is not bluer this I know It’s only mind that makes it so All things to me seem more intense Each day to me tweaks more suspense It seems to me a sweeter smell The bells ring out a sweeter knell And tasting odors wash my mind A youth of waste, a youth so blind That let myself so far adrift Beyond the near of daily gift No solace that I’m not alone It seems a state we all bemoan. |

Good morning, Sir T.! With the passing of the years I have come to realize the truth of the notion that youth, indeed, is wasted on the young! ~ and yes, my friend, the mind can conjure up many a splendid thing! But, alas, the converse holds true as well! Keep thinking the good thoughts and your greens will be ever so green, and your blues be those of heaven! ~ Have a day full of wondrous things! Loves & hugs, EA [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (06-03-2004 08:38 AM).] |

My goodness! I just noticed that this was your 24,000th post! You, my dear sonneteer, have touched all of our lives with your daily sonnets. You truly amaze me in your ability to maintain such a high calibre of writing. I have learned so much from you and you have opened my eyes to many truths as seen through those of yours! Thank you, for your brilliant omnipresence on these seas of blue! You make a difference in all of the lives of we who are priviledged to start our days with your sage and wondrous mots! ![]() ![]() Linda [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (06-03-2004 08:39 AM).] |

And tasting odors wash my mind A youth of waste, a youth so blind That let myself so far adrift Beyond the near of daily gift Powerfully written! maybe just maybe Sy, that was the intent it was not of waste nor blindness, but perhaps your significant and most necessary path, so now you equally understand more so then others, your now further along, not to mention, all the more sensitive to the powers that be? Yes? Love ya kiddo, say hi to Randy |

can I come over and admire your greener grass? Mine died because I measured the weed-killer wrong. |

It is not bluer this I know It’s only mind that makes it so All things to me seem more intense Each day to me tweaks more suspense It seems to me a sweeter smell The bells ring out a sweeter knell This touches me deeply, my friend... and for a very personal reason... you've described the awakening after a round with depression to a "T"! *S* But even reading it objectively, it goes straight back into my heart. *S* It's excellent! *S* Congratulations on your milestone! *S* These pages are certainly a brighter blue because of you... SMOOCH! *S* |
