Small were the fingers wrapped in curve of tender hold touching, reaching for tomorrow.... and growing Echoes resound days of innocence worn on sleeves of youth when children's laughter was heard. Oh! What precious sounds escaped the mouths of babes and smiles were born to live on in cherished hold of heart. Like a small seed leaning towards the light always seeking, climbing; rising to the sky... Yes, blowing in the wind and asking why, sometimes bending to and fro at times uncertain, of which way to go... hold on steadfast, strong and true and if clouds move in to make you blue don't be afraid to take my hand... know that I love you and understand. Time will pass and today will move on Yesterday remembers...... fingers wrap in curve of tender hold~ touching, reaching... together we'll grow..... The quietest noise I'm told is the sound of letting go.. Eddie/Troy [This message has been edited by Gentle Spirit (03-24-2005 12:04 PM).] |

As I am fond of yesterdays and memories, this title speaks for itself... but the inward hold of love is tenderly fragile... not grasping at what will be, but nurturing all that will be. |

Ofttimes one of the measures of the beauty and import of a poem, is not by the number of replies it receives, but by the thought that readers put into them. The responses you received were thoughtful and appreciative of both your talent and the feelings that your words evoked in your readers. We identify with what you write, Gentle Spirited One. You speak for all of us at one time or another in our lives. ![]() Hugs with love, Linda [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (03-24-2005 07:12 PM).] |

*faint* teenage years are hard? NO?? I would rather run naked, in a parade, with zombies chasing me and MTV filming it all rather than to do teenage years again... ![]() good luck with that Donna!!! As for the poem...beautiful! She should be moved by it as was I. ![]() "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |
