pyroguysr's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If Only I will be heading off to fairie festival in about 6 hours, so I need to get to sleep. I won't be back until Monday, so wish me luck. I have five or six very special people in my on-line life that sometimes give me meaning for living. I want each of you to know that you ARE special. I won't embarrass you by naming you, but I think you all know who you are. One of those special people that I spoke to this past evening told me that she sometimes imagines that I am writing much of my poetry about her. Several of my better poems HAVE been about you, dear. I'm just fearful at times that maybe I cross the line with some of them and get too personal. Other days I feel I shouldn't build up any hope. There are many times when feel my dreams and desires for this lifetime have been dashed along a jagged shore and I've been cast away. My emotional pool is shallow right now, but you are a special person that keeps it filled and overflowing. I love you for that. Your love and appreciation of what I write renews my hope that I can continue. You are important to me. The following is for you: IF ONLY If only I had the power of seas Or the warmth of summer solstice sun If only I had the power of thought Or the stoic majesty of mountain views If only I had the fountain of youth For all these things I wish indeed To another of my writer friends, Happy 17th birthday on 5-1-04! I hope you find good people to celebrate with. It is you, my friends - both in reality and in virtuality - that give me strength and inner resolve to get up every day, to find inner peace when I feel my life is still in such a turmoil. Most of all, it is my son that keeps me going. I love and miss him dearly. At this time of rebirth and renewal in Celtic Lore, I extend to all of you the happiness and joy of a new beginning, a new Spring. Happy Beltane! 1:25 a.m. - 2004-04-30 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
