    tri mind..great work i always love your observations about the mind and its struggles

    hes...not sure i will be on much tonight so in case i'm not here is wishing you a wonderful trip and like DT hope you can post but if not enjoy the break! look forward to hearing all on your return, take care

    Longing

    Come to me in my dreams, and then
    By day I shall be well again!
    For so the night will more than pay
    The hopeless longing of the day.

    Come, as thou cam'st a thousand times,
    A messenger from radiant climes,
    And smile on thy new world, and be
    As kind to others as to me!

    Or, as thou never cam'st in sooth,
    Come now, and let me dream it truth,
    And part my hair, and kiss my brow,
    And say, My love why sufferest thou?

    Come to me in my dreams, and then
    By day I shall be well again!
    For so the night will more than pay
    The hopeless longing of the day.

    Re: Today's poet

    I'm Suicidal let me out of here.

    That's 2 votes for eric and 8 votes for me,
    It's seems i've been chosen by the good and the great,
    Cameras' everywhere for all the world to see,
    I better meet the hosts before it's too late.

    I've got the choice of a rope or a knife,
    Eight million viewers i'm a T.V. success,
    Nearly time now say goodbye to my wife,
    To all of the public i speak my address.

    Ten million pounds the family set up for life,
    Now it's my time i say goodbye to my camp mate,
    Then up to my neck i place the knife,
    I am now ending my life not leaving it to fate.

    Re: Today's poet

    Am I right in thinking that there has been 2426 post without any Ivor Cutler? Lets put that right.
    Cant find anything i can cut and paste - but it wouldn't be the same without the voice of the geat man anyway, would it.

    If so, bon voyage and keep in touch.

    Awww HHH you will make me cry!

    I'm fully intending to keep up the international poetry theme but should I get kidnapped by bandits and sold into slavery or just lost...(I did do the FRA navigation course but I haven't put it into practise yet) I'll say now that I hope you all have a wonderful festive season and that 2010 will be a year of love, happiness, lots of fell running and even more poetry!

    I'm listening to Ivor as I type. Brilliant OW. It is my last night and I'll be coming and going as I haven't packed yet or finished my admin. I am fully expecting to post some heartfelt poems in the wee hours!

    Your last few poems have been incredible Tri-mind. I do hope that you can keep that black dog at bay. My money is on you outrunning it and getting that book published.

    You are off to the Empire dear girl. You must keep that stiff upper lip intact. Her majesty (that's Freckle btw) expects nothing less.
