Standing I stand upon an alters stone In weary flesh and weary bone Watching rainbows colored hews Beckoning my minds refuse It beckons me with fairy tales Offers me a wind to sail Laying down a carpets blue A way of understanding you No longer can I fight the tide Nor can I stay the stones abide And know that I will turn to grime Passing with the sands of time My spirit walks a lonely path Singular and full of wrath Charging wind mills in the rain Heedless of the strain and pain I howl into a night of blue Is that a howl I hear from you? |

A long-away, lonesome call... out, standing, in a field somewhere...  Good morning Sy... Went river-festivaling in the rain yesterday...this, is for you... Unbrellas dancing Feet kept time with all that jazz Music for the rain   |

This is a bittersweet beauty of fragile humilty me sweet Sy...written as only you can...making me *sigh* as only you can.  *ww*   |

I can see you standing straight and strong in the winds of time. You are pouring your spirit into your verses, where it revives everything. Nothing like howling to the night sky possibly with the moon grinning brightly, howling back ... Seymooooooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuur ! Hear my own howl? And the moon goes on with its knowing smile ... Good night, dear Poet Seymour. Love and joy! Margherita |

I see you upon wind washed deck Saving your ship from rocks that wreck Your eyes seach the coast for harbor To your muse who waits in arbor With magic words that touch the soul I envision a man whose dreams are bold...I love the trips to fantasy land your words take me on...They feed the soul of us who dream such dreams...Well done..*hugs* |
