Her Song See that girl all blush and thin See the sky that dangles At the edge of her whim Blue dress exploding all around her Hear the galloping of her youth Hear her song Of heart so long the sound Held in dimming light Covered with a flannel gown Hung in the sun to flower She walks where eyes watch And melts as she passes each whisper Her colt legs strong in root take note Of each cracked sidewalk cloaked With her impatience She is falling in love with a love song That plays her each night in dim Her skin like angel dust when touched Leaves a pattern laced with trust See this woman strong with fragile She who walks the road less traveled Dusted off from many falls The girl still sings within her walls Her song ------- 3-6-02 |

She walks where eyes watch And melts as she passes each whisper Her colt legs strong in root take note Of each cracked sidewalk cloaked With her impatience She is falling in love with a love song That plays her each night in dim Her skin like angel dust when touched Leaves a pattern laced with trust Lady, your a miracle writter...this was supurb....delightful...and speaks volumns about who we were, are and what we can be.... Bravo |

Nurturing the child within the woman, maintaining that fresh possibility, men too often kill off their innocent outlook (as do many women). A difficult balance shielding that stow-a-way against the pressures. To be able to summon it is a gift. While the unsteady colt rises within the poem it doesn't run off. Enjoyed Poets against the war is redundant |
