Now where are you, my littlest one, When your mind is frail spent and weary? Where are you, with your braided thoughts, When your eyes are brim full, and teary? In my own mind I am already there Held in sharing of beautiful moments Sitting by the lake, words written with care, Of times given, with a special friend spent. For this is the spot, the poet's spot Where our grown feelings and hearts collide... This is the place, very special place Where our poetic thoughts may abide... Joined within the spirit of friendship’s hold Poetic dreams flowing in written word Intent, we listen to the stories told, Mesmerizing lilt by sounds of life...heard. So this is where we now bind our hearts To grow in love and these common bonds For this is where lovely friendships start by blue water's edge, and a lily's pond For within my heart, I am ready, there Where water sparkles and dreams do come true In poetically treasured moments In my heart, my friend, I am there...with you... So here we are, my littlest one Tears now abate by deep water's edge Under the sultry summer’s singing sun Words of wisdom are now firmly wedged Between the air and sky and lovely dreams Where we gather to watch the stars come play I shall gaze on you as you walk moon's beam And we shall duet again, another day...

You write gentleness and love better than anyone I know....what a touch you show in this one! It's like a comfortable pillow, and each line is a feather of it. The title alone was enough to bring me, but the verse left me very glad I came. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> ______________Ratleader______________ |

Sissie and Donna Could it be that friendship between poets is the very best kind? Sure does paint your words into that fact so lovingly! ![]() |

Ah, back again.....I'm glad you added to the title...I was wondering about that when I responded the first time, not knowing it was an actual duet! This is so seamless I literally can't tell where one of you ends and the other begins....and now it's a double treat. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
