I walked a way of glass
I swim a sea of shards
I'll climb a cliff
Of sliding stones
That will crash below
To a valley of bones
Above the sky
Of silver green
Devours the sun
With banshee scream
And yet I follow
This infinite road
Hoping to find
A grain of gold

Uta..this poem reminded me of wading through Dark Passions, reading all the posts, til I find that "grain of gold" like this poem.  Lovely....Hardrock  PS...did I tell you that you are beautiful?

Oh yes, beautiful. Just the way it is, so many obstacles block the way to the good stuff. Love it.
