Knowing Thou This Woman Thou sayest thou cares to know this woman? That it is most awkward to know her well? Hear me, my friend, come hither and see For it is in this crystalline tear that fell. See thou this tear? This drop of hope and faith? This love that has spilled out from within This bit of tenderness that just escaped This, a precious release of soul therein Now wipe thy baffled look from thy face Harbor not questions in her cosmic embrace Take her offerings wrapped in golden sheen And believe in all of her feather-light dreams Thou shouldst ne'er question her resolute steel That inner fiery core that only she may feel That softest part therein that believes in you And would raise thee up, through and through Thou sayest thou wants to know this woman What art thou missing in this, her touch? Cannot you feel the holy awesome of her? Thou couldst, if not on thy guard so much... And this is the reason of the why, dear friend That she, her crystalline tear on thee, would spend For thou, thou wouldst question her very heart While crystalline tears for thy soul she imparts... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Oh, Karilea~ This is just exquisite. What a joy to read. You shed the crystalline tear so gently. Pure joy. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

BEAUTIFUL must be the mountains whence ye come, And bright in the fruitful valleys the streams wherefrom Ye learn your song. ======================= Written with salty tears burning my eyes. You must shine more the brighter and burn away the clouds from your horizon. Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |

I loveth thine writing And thou poem so fine I loveth the way Thou maketh it rhyme That I might write Such a piece in my time Would maketh mine heart Beat in time with thine That I might hear the song thee hear That I might someday be The poet I see in thee... can you tell I liked it??? jwesley |
