I am here among you, lost in silent and soft remember of passing moments, of traveling times yet to be before my eyes. I am there, standing in the shadow of a great oak, watching the crispness of a sun in morning rise. I am beating within your pulsing chest, as blood mightily courses your every vein. Lost in temperate moments, in unrest...of daily struggles which I must restrain. I am within your feathered pen as ink flows dark upon a fresh clean page. Waiting to speak, to take a snow drift walk...to have a moment's engage. I am where the budding flowers bloom, where daisies and daffodils play. The unseen flowing breeze that touches your room, the shadow lingering, wanting simply to just stay. I am ... yes... I am.. |

Hi Barry! I'm so glad to see you! ![]() "I am where the budding flowers bloom, where daisies and daffodils play. The unseen flowing breeze that touches your room, the shadow lingering, wanting simply to just stay. I am ... yes... I am.." A very touching poem, my friend.

Love every part of this one, Barry, but these lines are my favorite: I am within your feathered pen as ink flows dark upon a fresh clean page. Waiting to speak, to take a snow drift walk...to have a moment's engage. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |
