Libra Rising

Libra Rising

A Poem by BrightEyes
"

-written for Yvonne, I'm really happy to have found this one!

"

 

Most days, she smiles

Lending inspiration

Lifting lost souls

From depths of despair

Laughter and love abound

These are the brighter days

When sunshine is bountiful

 

Some days, she cries

For loved ones lost

Time wasted

Regret rains down

Remorse her companion

These are darker days

Where only storm clouds live

 

If power were mine

And I one gift to give

A mirror would I craft

For her to look upon

Reflected there her spirit

Ever shining; ever strong

She is Libra Rising

Wow...Waht more can you say- this poem is full of a power and energy that is moving. You can tell how close you are to this and how much it means to you and it is beautiful.

This is beautiful. Such a nice tribute to a friend. It flows nicely and the last stanza sends a nice gesture. I really like it! (I am a libra too!) =-)

what an awesome poem. I have no idea what I have rising. I only know I am a lumbering Taurus if ever there was one, but I am not so cloddish that I cannot feel the love in this piece. What a great thing to do for a friend.

BrightEyes.. this could be about me .. i have the same sort of days..
You made the poem alive and it is to me very emotional..
I like the thought of a mirror that reflects spirt .. that would be nice..
and she is Libra Rising.. this sounds so strong..

This reads as a woman who is unable to find her true self. Hiding behind all the masks we wear is who we truly are. It is powerful and the flow is beautiful.

Fantastic

awww... I am without words. How truly thoughtful of you to write this for her. Very inspiring and nice to well up some happy tears after all of the emotional reading today. Your choice of words is really.... just I don't know... Words really fail me, I don't want to echo the same tried and true words to describe something that was extraordinary to me.
