~Shining In The Darkness~ Embraced by darkness of night, a poet searches for glimpses of light. Finding comfort and consolation in the quiet shadows, creating legends and myths with shades of indigo. Cryptic and mystical, with gifted poets pen ... defines confessions of a soul, the dark places within. Thine eyes have read behind and between the lines, discovering the secrets hidden in verse and rhyme. Realizing dark waters ... both its depth and undertow, the mysteries of the man ... only the poet can ever know. Though the darkness seem endless, constant and true, the grace of your words, allows your light to shine thru. Janet Marie < !signature--> Do you live by the book, do you play by the rules Do you care what is thought by others about you If this day is all that is promised to you Do you live for the present, the future the past... tracy chapman [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (edited 03-27-2000).] |

Janet Marie, I loved how this flowed and how the poet's light is revealed from the writings. I am going to send this one as an ecard! The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship." --Ralph Waldo Emerson |
