A Page Within the Tide Inside wave and the still air of birds write of wondrous things of amber skies as morning singing catches a blue birds voice on breeze as it whispers through the trees. Do you know the red tide that makes the ocean other? Filled and plankton washed it is like my eyes Write of oceans vast and blue while mesmerized by sapphire hues that gently lap upon the shore, tell a tale of ancient lure. I know this poem that lies inside waiting to be drawn from daylights dew Past the dredge of morning fog see clear this day somewhere inside lean toward the waiting A slip of thought that turns ones mind as tide rolls in then slowly subsides floating, flowing senses touching If you listen there is always a song in the still air of birds or in the reflection made again and again within the changing Wrap your wings around it then notice a guide caught in swirling eddy of air a page within the tide Be still like the pond with vision awaiting the fish or the density of worm, even a ripple explains how seeing is inside the wave never let down always wet. |

"If you listen there is always a song in the still air of birds or in the reflection made again and again within the changing" "Wrap your wings around it then notice a guide caught in swirling eddy of air a page within the tide " oh my, but yes exquisite, a gorgeous peaceful write |

I know this poem that lies inside waiting to be drawn from daylights dew Past the dredge of morning fog see clear this day somewhere inside lean toward the waiting A slip of thought that turns ones mind as tide rolls in then slowly subsides floating, flowing senses touching ~*~ loving this roller coastering of you... you're back... and strong! Gentle Spirit was indeed fortunate to blend a moment... it's wonderful, you two! [This message has been edited by Sunshine (06-07-2006 07:03 AM).] |

I am captured in your words this morning, Martie, especially these lines: Past the dredge of morning fog see clear this day somewhere inside lean toward the waiting Sometimes the silence is so noisy, and I have an intense wish for stillness without weight  Wishing you much joy, Dear Heart!~ K |
