Poems - hounds at the gates of dawn
| | hounds at the gates of dawnby omegapaf
by wolfie and foxy ( wolfinwindow and omegapaf )
the gates of dawn shine bright with warm colour
they await the newness of the day
and the surprises there within
without which there would be no way
the trees rock from left to right
even when they are out of sight
but where do little saplings go
when the big trees won't listen to their woe
as nature anticipates the coming of the hounds
they will not come in leaps and bounds
but wild jessica comes with a roar
to find the gentle protective thor.

"but where do little saplings go
when the big trees won't listen to their woe"...takes my heart, in this wonderful poem.
Kudos to both of you!!
warmest wishes,

release the hounds!!
i think Kate Bush said it best:
"Now hounds of love are hunting
I've always been a coward
And I don't know what's good for me"
give Jessica some tickles from me

G'day Paul...
Wild Jessica! The Sunderland barker! Who leads her thor against the might of skinheads in his midst.
You two have lifted the colours in a sunrise.
Thanks mate
