Feet planted pure in their nakedness alone Stand with me here upon this world of stone Atlantic crashing madly rehashing speaking to me in waves below OH! so close to the edge . . . Float with me within this realm weightlessly leaving thrice weaving send me home to the place of my birth Wild wind whispering soul singing it is time to decide to fly . . . Sky above me sea below Four corners pulling me to go Echoes in sleep sweet slumber deep Turn and awake last chance to glance at this place I leap [This message has been edited by littlewing (04-17-2003 02:27 PM).] |

You evoked immense forces here .... ready to leap, the soul's longing is exquisitely expressed. I miss your picture, but I carry your smile in my heart ... Wonderful write! Love, Margherita |

Such power and emotion in this piece. Loved the lyical flow of it. I can just feel my soul sway and drift among the swirling sea and the lifting sky. in short, just plain WONDERFUL |

Clearly crafted imagery. Well done. No one needs a parachute, just let go of the rope and be free. Thank you for sharing this. |

Wow, but this just doesn't seem right. Someone like you shouldn't be feeling this. You are too young to be going through these things. As soon as I started reading this seems my mind just flew through it. Wow, again. Love, Terri~ |
