Where in dark woods can I find you? beside the flowing river with no end: haunting shadow holding flowers for a moment, on my palms the still - felt silence-- in endless colors emerging petals were falling I came upon them at dawn bent down to touch silk meaning, while trees were quiet& blue veils went unrecognized in the sky for hours I stood listening to earth Today, ask me to walk on the other side of the bridge -- read a part of your sadness, your embrace from forgotten novels most stories are about time, and lovers fade your words ever softly Still the night held no stars we danced in the wake of dust gathering memories to hold upon heart your beauty stirred wind haunting my eyes Your whisper, I bury in my soul tucked against pressed lips and gentle fingers here I know the embrace of each branch Leave the roses in their box let rain scatter their ashes in rhythms of wind and water they will eventually make way to the sea --lonely and searching for your hands ~~**~~ The sound of silence calls, I hear your voice and suddenly I'm falling, lost in a dream The echo of our souls meet ~~**~~ [This message has been edited by Greeneyes (04-23-2004 12:04 AM).] |

L, you have written so much beauty but none more eloquent and beautiful before, and your soul never shared so much before... Gosh gal, do you know how much you are loved aroud here and by me? You are a butterfly who's wings fly so very high. It's better than I could have planned.. |
