~*~ Snow drifts in a flurry however the flakes remain imperfect in their patterns. Like the sound of your laughter I imagined blowing across my bangs hanging stars from my eye lashes blushing rosy on my cheeks. Like cashmere in the mist used to keep me warm was the purest joy I had ever known seems so trite and cliche' when my memory strays and becomes meaningless. As the temperature drops clouding my cover in a shiver I'll never forget to remember the burst of color in the sunlight arranged in a spring bouquet hard pressed between the pages would be my valentine in the meantime. Those seedlings so far and few between now feed the sound of silence piercing the heart at a distance lacing the edges of my sighs framing a picture of you in mind gives me no reason to miss you now, but I do. Like a frozen rain trickles down a stream condensing on my pain enough to fill a reservoir no longer draws me in or dares me to cross a pond that wouldn't hold me. Even though I still look for you waving out my window in the heat of the night easing the winter chill that softens my smile reflecting in my rearview going nowhere. As a footnote in the aftermath where the water falls and rises melting in the stillness before crashing against the damn that would break me. ~*~ |

It is difficult for me to find the words sometimes to thank you for all the nice things you said....makes me feel that my writing is worthwhile, and I thank you so much for encouraging me. Happy Holidays to each of you, and every good wish in the New Year. With love, and many many hugs~ Bluesy~ |

Whenever you may doubt The beauty of your verse, Reread these posts and praise we send; You really could do worse. We all take pen to make our stand And tell the world our tale.` It's when we open up our hearts, It's then they're free to sail. Well done, Bluesy and a most Merry Christmas! Ken Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

So much behind this....and reading it I can see you as if the poem were a window and you standing behind it, the human center of a structure made to be transparent while keeping out the cold winds. This poem is excellent, and I'm pushing the Library button. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Deep Sigh. Like the reservoir in your poem, your words are overflowing with expression and deep deep emotion. I loved your writing. Thank your for sharing. -Bob |
