Konrad’s Journal – Thoughts Alone Now, now, she has me wondering, and I am not good at introspection. This morning's dream faded with Xcanatun’s mists; it was only a tree, but I am sure, …I was sure, if I crossed the bridge, this other one would be there, in the shadows, waiting… still… I had once thought Dana my life, the one I would hang my hopes upon, when stars in her eyes would light my way, her laughter’s voice to be my blanket; but I had thought… Wrong. Now, the one who came in search, still searches, for I sense her trembling still wavering in the air…and the air moves with her spirit…it will not leave this place, I feel her, I just can’t see her. She once thought me a fantasy of her mind, but truth be told, here I am. She has become my own flight of imagination. Somehow, I feel warmer in the memory of her smile for I memorized it, in whole. She is not beautiful, only hauntingly handsome. She would shake her head, smiling, blushing, if she knew her conquest. I saw the iris of chameleon green eyes transform with colors, forever pupils widen into bedroom eyes, even in a southern morning’s brightest light… when her thoughts were somewhere else… when she touched the past, scarring my dreams lightly. I heard her laugh. I heard her voice so throaty, so… husky, and I hungered then, and now, for the right words to be spilled over me. I was right then, and now, believing it better than chocolate silk… and for a moment, crossing that bridge brought to mind thoughts of Brigadoon… perhaps I need to believe just a little bit more that all things are possible. Somehow, I envision her doing the same. Do wishes count? Does hope bring about reality? When will I stop asking questions? Do I dare try again to cross the bridge with my heart wide open? I listen for Iambe’s voice. I’ll sit in the shadows until I feel her kick. Even though I know what she’d say. [This message has been edited by Sunshine (05-07-2004 09:23 PM).] |

that was very deep and spiritual... i do not think we should spend much time on asking questions of unspecified answers or recall much of the past... however, i know how i could be helpless about doing that sometimes... take care. |

"and for a moment, crossing that bridge brought to mind thoughts of Brigadoon… perhaps I need to believe just a little bit more that all things are possible." Yes!! I thought the same thing when I saw the picture last night... When Konrad arrives on the scene... Magic happens. ~ Trace my body with your words, |
