To Hear The Call singular seasons come, all the cycles remain hearken to the wind, to hear the call's refrain streaming through like silver in the golden light then as if a sliver, shivers, on into the night blanketing frost of white, coverlet of earth passion laying low below, knowing of its worth receives all what is, yet fights all to live accepts when to take, and then when to give Snow goose on wing, breaking through the breeze still in search of summer, winter offers no release eye on figure of life's mate, there up in the blue faithful through all cycles, a mating of the true to hear the call, and shed tears of pellucid peace in giving of one's all, to suffer precious, sweet release 02.10.01 Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Kari dear heart utterly wonderful, and 'Deer pellucid is translucent, allowing the passage of light. Which this does love utterly wonderfuly, I can see this sooooo perfectly. (So have I got the thoughtful honesty down to a tee?) I am true and I never lie, because there is no need to that is why. Anyway I've told you loads of times I have excellent taste! Okay not when it comes to dresses but the arts now that I can do. Outstanding work utterly beautiful and yes it's into the library with this, and come tomorrow, well today but, you know what I mean. This will be posted so that it can place some beauty into all the lucky souls who are just visiting this place. (Lucky because they don't have to eat here! and they can get away at a reasonable time) Take care love as always Puck  Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Beautifully soft and soothing Kari. A keeper for the library when I need some soft thoughts to soothe a weary soul. Well done and hugs.  On the wings of words our spirits fly, and our souls are free. Donna Smith |

Comforting words blowing in the breezes of this one. Very lovely write. If you find yourself stranded in a storm ...then reach for my hand and we will play in the puddles together |
