Hold back the waters; Strong walls melt In sunshine of trust. Call for reinforcements Blocks of ice before waters gush. |

Ah poet, to build a really good wall... one needs bricks and stones... 'cause y'know...sunshine will always beat down the ice. |

Been there, done that, have the glaciers and puddles to prove it... Too bad, no matter how it's dealt with, either someone drowns or freezes... Well said  Always, Alyssa Poems are made by fools like me, |

Great write. I really love the images you portray. This is one of those poems that I look at and say, "Why couldn't I think of something like that!?" *Allison* ~~~***~~~Come away with me, Wendy. Come away to Neverland~~~***~~~ |

You nailed it. Course, for me, I employ a personal romulan cloaking device. I shiver in the cold.  Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

iliana, Thanks,Sis. If I only had a nickel for every time my wall melts and I have to block it up again! misc'e passing shadows, Yep. I think ya do. Glad you could relate. misc'e sunshine, You're right about that! I remember a child's story about the Sun and North Wind having a battle to see who could influence a man to take off his coat first. Naturally, you know who won! Enjoyed your comment. misc'e alyssa, That ouches. Hoping things go better... Take care, misc'e Allison, Thanks for you sweet compliment. You're probably better off not coming up with something like this. (The field experience is costly.) misc'e Susan, So I nailed it? Perhaps I should try carpentry! The poetry just isn't coming these days. Your cloaking device sounds rather interesting, BTW. |

Strong walls melt In sunshine of trust. They do that, don't they? *S* Even when the trust isn't warranted. *S* Excellent write! |
