and love is only one fine star away ~ Stevie Nicks in that place where the ocean once lay lapping promises red hills rise fine stars cover the night bowl ripe for the picking there in the lush plain loves come and gone are seen again gray convoluted fossils half hidden frightened guilty there a hand reaches fingers wrap a star breeze whispers oh wrong star |

As an unabashed ‘incurable romantic’, Inveterate/addicted ‘imager', and a ‘Deep-Time’ geologist and ‘dreamer’… I can’t help but LOVE this ‘write’! I am especially fond of: “…where the ocean once lay lapping promises”; “fine stars cover the night bowl ripe for the picking”; “in the lush plain loves come and gone are … gray convoluted fossils half hidden(!)” AND: “fingers wrap(ping the) wrong star(!)” Serious, long-sustained applause!! |

I ran across a phrase today regarding the Mount Cross... and had to look it up, and your poem reminds me of that image, something that can only be seen in the eye of the lover and in the heart of a hopeful. |

OH Lady, What a romantic description of promise and hope you write. The ending was a surprise, but maybe that's what makes love all the more worth while--the waiting, the longing, the promise. How I love your writing! miscellanea |
