The wind blows in lilt of melody I tilt my head, listening to sounds winds circle gently, these chimes on wind carry me, soft breeze, home once again for in a long ago moment I wound a watch to check the tick of now and again I listened hard to the round in my palm of tell me tell me of now and then... I am listening...remembering notes played once upon a yesterday when the sun felt warm upon my face while basking in heavenly amber glow... for when bluegreen eyes were nearer mine as honeysuckle scent grew so strong then mesmerized we toward silksome stream as we basked in midnight sun so long... In flash of mem'ry I then, was there a captured moment time standing still these visions seen, bygone days of youth where wild and free my soul still abides. ~*~ Kari....thank you.. |

the entire poem was magnficant, but this, this was my favorite.... for when bluegreen eyes were nearer mine as honeysuckle scent grew so strong then mesmerized we toward silksome stream as we basked in midnight sun so long... absolutely beautiful |

Dear Donna and Karilea, first of all thank you for the lesson: both the words used in the title are new acquisitons of my vocabulary in English. And that said, I have to add that I love your creative collaboration very much, a perfect harmony resonates through your beautiful words. Love and hugs. Margherita |

Duets are like that... one poet has a need to write, the other cannot write for need... and then the songs begin. I thank Donna for taking the reins on this one, for allowing me to intersperse my lines... I was but a follower in this... and without Donna, it would not have happend. Thank you all for reading. I think it would be nice to see another duet marathon with several of our talented writers. I hope a few of you will knock on another poet's window soon... and delve right in. thank you, daughter. |
