in bed last night artemis spoke to me of amazons I said I do not wish to speak of amazons nor goddesses I am weary give me peace she wrestled me this woman of the hunt captured me with her legs and then she spake and would these amazons take refuge in the house of artemis and would these full breasted women but sit and wait till danger passed I tell you now these women of heart of strength never waited never took refuge not from danger or love not from life or death nor even from themselves these women set their eyes upon the roads upon the sun glanced upon marvels swung their chaste legs mounted clouds and rode give me peace I cried yet leave your legs awhile _________________ the temple of artemis was said to be a place of refuge for the amazons when some of zeus’ more rascally sons gave them agita artemis tells it differently |

I tell you now these women of heart of strength never waited never took refuge not from danger or love not from life or death nor even from themselves these women set their eyes upon the roads upon the sun glanced upon marvels swung their chaste legs mounted clouds and rode ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Good Lord Kate, you HAVE been reading my thoughts this day, and writing them. Think I will just lay this pen down now and let it rest awhile... geez...and You? It WAS most definately worth the wait.   seek the flame within yourself |

Perhaps, the chariots of the Gods have picked us up, wisped us into the heavens and allowed us rest upon the clouds of Mount Olympus so that we might this day look down upon the valleys and with contentment, smile, with sigh. (excuse me for intruding Kate, your inspiring me today!!) |
