I Hear I hear the howling of the wind A fouling never to exscind It whispers in the soul of me That lives in serendipity I see the sky and greenery The lovely, lovely scenery It drops a salve within my eye But does not stop the tears I cry I feel the rain upon my skin Rising welts upon it’s thin Washing down the dust of grime But does not stop the passing time I smell the odors decompose The odor started like a rose It lifted me to heavens goal And handed me my pass of soul But still I cannot understand The rhythm of the marching band |

Hehe, the last line made me chuckle a little. I love the meter in this, so it makes it hard to believe that you wouldnt' get the rhythym in music ![]() But this was so lovely.. the beauty of life and nature, and yet the fleetingness (is that a word? :P) of it. Very good! Love's a lovely lad His bringing up is beauty Who loves him not is mad For I must pay him duty -Anonymous |

The Salvation Army If this is it Does terrific work Chubb I believe sponsors "all is gone and you had better believe it, because we will be back here next week" merchants who weakly and weekly test your "doorlocks" I like the words, maybe a bit harsh Bodger |

Sy There are so many oposing emotions and feelings in this. I like that in a poem...but this: "But still I cannot understand The rhythm of the marching band", just isn't true. You understand rhythm like no other! ![]() |

Well Sy, seeing that Martie is a woman I'm going to side with her. Besides she's right even though you're write. ![]() If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
