wish

Whose 'line' is it anyway?

Wednesday, July 16, 2008


Poem Artwork

A Wish??? ....nothin' more than a tackle box of 
w-obbly
i-ndefinite
s-hapeless
h-ints

 

sittin' on the side of the bay right before sunset. . .

w-ooing
i-nward
s-imple
h-opes

A Wish

just may die from sunstroke. . . burying itself in the sand because no one else wants to play. . .

w-aits
i-gnor'd
s-hrivel'd
h-urt,

A Wish

lives when it learns that anyone fishing for success should never cast a wishing line without the right lure to reel in their dreams.

Cynth'ya,

Hello, Sweetie. This is a beautiful, poignant write that bears much fruit - thank you. You inspire me. Well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

The last one,

W-aits

...rings so true.

A different wishful write, wishing always can get us somewhere. I like the way you presented this and it made me think some. About wishes not being coming true. Some of mine do and some don't, but you took it in stride with the way you posted it in formation. Love this write**********
