flowers layout powered by HOT FreeLayouts.com / MyHotComments..........................................My love of poetry started at an early age with my mom copying down her favorites into a notebook. A habit which I picked up, even though she gave me my favorite book out of her collection mnay years later. The poem I have included below is my favorite from that book and of all time. It probably best describes me. I've always loved the man I was with including my husband now, but, there is always one man out there somewhere that I'd like one kiss or one touch or just to know as a friend. I feel much the same about life. I am by nature happy and satisfied for the most part, but, there is always that one little somthing I'd like to do or somewhere I'd like to go.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Midsummer~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~You loved me for a little, Who could not love me long..........
You gave me wings of gladness, And lent my spirit song.You loved me for an hour, But only with your eyes..........
Your lips I could not capture, By storm or by surprise.Your mouth that I remember, With sudden rush of pain..........
As one remembers starlight, Or roses after rain.Out of a world of laughter, Suddenly I am sad..........
Day and night it haunts me, The kiss I never had.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Sidney King Russell~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
