The Prophecy, Part I Her mother's silvered mirror reveals softer lines than she has heard over her years. Tonight she pays no mind. She is past her past, aware of imperfections which someday might be his fulfillment, and she smiles at his reflection, a ghost, shining in her eyes As silver'd mirror becomes crystal, the ball in which she begins to prophesize that first rendezvous. Behind lid of closed eye imagination takes hold a figure forms a hand brushes her brow gentleness is almost a scent she takes a shallow breath as she feels him entering her soul At once she weakens tears fall silent she breathes deep, as if to sigh, his presence envelops her taking her completely embracing all she was as she emerges whole by this silent mating of their souls This...this is the dream and she, she is his recipient, while he...he is out there tenderly scribing thought, brushing brows with a gentle touch, the scent of him, smelling of love.

Patricia & Karilea... This took me away and I am still drifting.. Amazingly beautiful write... I was going to choose my favourite stanza but I would have copied the entire piece here. May we see you two du-et again soon? ~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~ ~Somewhere in my heart I'm always |

Ok girls/ladies... Ya gone and done it now... you are confined to writing nothing but duets from here to eternity. Beautiful, I must say... The lines added so measurably the feel of mystique, of something yet to come... much enjoyed. Perhaps he will appear.. |

We have a gem of a poet here, folks. She's got a gift, has a way with words, and it was my pleasure that she wanted to duet. All I did was add a couple of lines - it was her imagination and verve that's going to make this a two, three, four or five parter... I wonder where she's going to take me with this!  Thank you Patricia, for allowing me to duet with you! [This message has been edited by Sunshine (06-15-2003 08:49 AM).] |

First, I speak for both of us in saying thank you for your wonderful replies. As for you, Karilea, my dear friend, you know that I am but a mere freshman at Passions School, and you are my teacher. It is with you and your words that this verse came alive. Thank you for allowing me to duet with you. I have grown immensely from the experience, and I am so looking forward to another. Plus, I just had the best time of my life!!!! Patricia |

‘Tonight she pays no mind. She is past her past, aware of imperfections which someday might be his fulfillment, and she smiles at his reflection, a ghost, shining in her eyes’ ‘This...this is the dream and she, she is his recipient, while he...he is out there tenderly scribing thought, brushing brows with a gentle touch, the scent of him, smelling of love.’ Cool...a twofer!!!!  Love the repetition and the haunting tone. Ya'll done good! |

Karilea & Patricia, I'm so glad I waited to read as this has left me longing for more... Just wonderfully done.  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Yeah, what Larry said. And this ending is absolutely stunning.... This...this is the dream and she, she is his recipient, while he...he is out there tenderly scribing thought, brushing brows with a gentle touch, the scent of him, smelling of love. Now, to part II |
