![]() Introduction: "Not from the whole wide world I choose thee, Sweetheart, light of the land and the sea! The wide, wide world could not enclose thee, For thou art the whole wide world to me." - R. W. Gilder Talk To Me by Suzanne Hayasaki Sit with me in the shade of this tree. Tell me who you were, who you are, And who it is you wish to be. Talk to me of days gone by and days to come. Talk to me of warm mornings, cool evenings, And cold nights, writing by candlelight. Tell me of the epic that will not come. Tell me of the love poems that continue to flow, Unread, unpublished, unappreciated, Unseen by the eyes that inspire them. Tell me of your ambitions, your wishes, Your vision of what you could be If someone would take the time to read The words you put to paper so passionately. Recite and I will listen. Hypnotize me with your rhymes. Lull me with the rhythms of your speech. Create a complete world with your words And let your voice lead us both Where you want us to go. The epic is an oral tradition. Poetry is meant to be heard not read. Don’t look for your story in the structure. Don’t expect to work magic if you are counting feet. Just be. Just speak. Just believe That within you is beauty And release it. "Wide River To Cross" There's a sound in the wind, blowing down the road I've been I can hear it cry while shadows steal the Sun But I can not look back now, come too far to turn around And there's still a race ahead, I must run I'm only half way home I got a journey on, Where I'll find the things I have lost I've come a long, long road Still I've got miles to go I've got a wide, wide river to cross I have stumbled, I have strayed You can trace the tracks I've made All across the memories, why aren't we gone But I'm just a refugee, won't you sing a prayer for me Cause sometimes even the strongest soldiers falls I'm only half way home I got a journey on, Where I'll find the things I have lost I've come a long, long road Still I've got miles to go I've got a wide, wide river to cross I've got a wide, wide river to cross I've got a wide, wide river to cross References: Lyrics: https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/dianakrall/widerivertocross.html Video: Diana Krall - Published on Sep 11, 2012 Personal Note: To the man I love, I want you morning, noon and night. I think of you always, every minute of the day. What are you doing today? How did you feel? Did you laugh and think about me? Did you take long steps or sit down? Did you get angry and shrugged it off? Dance with this gal my darling. The journey is not over yet. It's you that bring the sun to my rainy days and without you I am lost. Consistency spells affection. Affection is the response to my emotion, I have for you. You are the love of my life.

Diana Mary Sharpton“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.” Categories
