    Our worries and fears
    Cast dim by the neon lights
    Our love will prove strong

    *cheesy*
    Dreams! adorations! illuminations! religions!
    the whole boatload of sensitive !

    Our love will prove strong
    We can defeat anything
    As long as we love

    And for the record, you can scry with many different things. Glass, mirrors, water, wind, just about anything...
    May curiousity kill me, and may satisfaction bring me back.

    I seem to have finally found my way back to heaven online, formally known as you all. I've missed you all so much....

    worlds will continue to turn,
    step into the game

    Thanks for the definition of scry. I was looking in a smaller dictionary by the computer, too lazy to go seek out a bigger and better one. Thanks, RobinH!

    opps meant to write my haiku


    Step into the game
    Precarious it might be
    But worth the effort
    "It's so mysterious, the land of tears."

    but worth the effort,
    (well) it was, said Yoda to
    his young disciple.

    his young disciple
    homesick for his native land
    sought a way back home

    Janine and everyone. Try these web sites for definitions and other word searches:

    http://www.m-w.com/

    http://www.rhymezone.com/r/rhyme.cgi...rg1=syl&org2=l

    http://thesaurus.reference.com/

    http://www.onelook.com/reverse-dictionary.shtml

    Each have their advantages. That last one is very powerful.

    Well, as you may have noticed Virgil - I spelled "scry" wrong - think it was a typo - I had it "scy" left out the "r". I just looked in another dictionary of mine and it is not there - on to the bigger and newer one now.
    Virgil it was awfully nice of you to PM thanking all for your birthday celebration. You are very gracious and appreciative.
    Thanks for the links - also you are always so helpful. You should have been a teacher or prof. I think you missed your true calling.

    Here's my haiku

    Sought a way back home
    Found his lost love waiting there
    Left behind, with child
    "It's so mysterious, the land of tears."

    Teacher, Professor? God forbid. I just like being helpful. BTW, Janine, did you see my entry in the poetry contest? "Self-Portrait."

    Left behind with child
    Three wise men pay a visit.
    Bright star leads the way.

    I have to check that poem out...wow. When is the deadline date? I had wanted to try writing one. Probably too late now. Thought you would be out celebrating your B-day or were you...if so how was it...good dinner or whatever? Nice Haiku for the season!

    Here is mine~

    Bright star leads the way
    Galaxies in soulfull space
    Bring forth a new year
    "It's so mysterious, the land of tears."

    Your haiku - so New York, Virgil! Just wrote you a PM about your poem. I loved it!

    Midnight revelries
    Faces painted, brightly glow
    Excitement expands
    "It's so mysterious, the land of tears."

    I love that last one Janine, the quality of your haikus leaves me in more and more awe every time!

    Excitement expands
    A thousand huddled sparrows
    Soar beneath my gaze
    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

    Soar beneath my gaze
    My little one, my sweetheart.
    Spring means separation.
