We

 

 

We are the mellow autumn

            in our hearts

and the winter frost

            dusting our hair

together we herald time

            silently falling

and life's seasons

            gently slipping by

 

Where you go

            there go I

as twins together

            the rainbow you

and radiant I

            brother and sister

time travellers

            we

Nicola, it speaks sweetly to my heart at this time in my life...

There is much wisdom here

Nicola, the link didnt take me to the sister article to this. so i endeavoured to see this as a solitary work, and you moved me.

'Where you go, there go I, as twins together, the rainbow you, and radiant I"

To see how those we love compliment us is a beautiful thing. I liked this, it made me look at my important relationships and consider why they mean so much to me.

Very beautiful! It gives one a feeling of peace and comfort...
Dan B. Jul 17, 2006, 10:21am EDT
Very nice. Lot of deep metaphor.
Aileen F. Jul 17, 2006, 12:06pm EDT
Yes, beautiful! I picked up on the same line as Carolyn, love the complementary essence of it.
Miz Lynn aka/BooBoo Jul 17, 2006, 1:14pm EDT
Beautiful poem, heartwarming and lovely......(sigh)

Very peaceful, magi, thanks for this.

Lovely, made me think of my two sisters instantly!

very nice
Lea, then this poem was worth the writing and sharing.

Magi
Thank you, John.

Magi
Carolyn, I'm sorry about the hyperlink - there's a glitch I'll try to fix (the link now takes me straight into the 'edit your article').

Thank you for your comment - those we love compliment us, and we them. It is so true.

Magi
Thank you, Lisa and Dan for your appreciative comments.

Magi
And thank you, too, Aileen and Lynn for your generous comments - such keep me trying to do even better.

Magi
Steve, thank you for the compliment. But everyone is a poet - all we need do is practise the art.

Magi
Thank you, Faith - peace is what we owe each other and is extended by sharing.

Magi
Edward, I'm so pleased that it did - sincerely so!

Magi
And thank you both, Mona and Carol for your nice comments.

I feel warm and happy inside after reading this.
It works in many ways for me...brothers, sisters, mate, everyone who shares the path.
Thank you so much, Jan. I'm glad it does work in those ways - that was what I was trying to achieve.

Magi
Carolyn and everyone - after 4 attempts in edit my article, I've got the hyperlink to work albeit the messy looks of the link itself.

Magi, I love this and the form makes it that much better. I have a twin sister so I relate really well to this poem.
Thank you so much, Laurie, for your very nice comment.

So sweet and beautiful, with just a dash of sadness to tease the taste. Bitter sweet. Time falling indeed. Lucid and crisp.
Thank you, indeed, Perry, for you sweet comment.

Those we walk with hand in hand, sharing laughter and sorrow, are more valuable then gold nuggets in the snow. Quite beautiful magi.
It is so, Bob! And thank you for the compliment.
