Step to the right, step to the left, but you know it’s in the middle where everything’s alright. It’s like the mind decrees the feel of what’s not me essentially to make of the coming back a daunting climb of will. Let me whisper now the need to stand as one aligned with the centred meaningful before the pillars crumble and ne’er be built again. There’s an urgency to whispers heard in the dream of love and in the shake and tremble that follows in its wake lest the left and right lean in and suffocate the mind. And you know I won’t be travelling to make the middle known but somewhere is the door that leads safely through the mire of the far away outside. Step through and in one day, my friend and then you’ll know how lovers feel when minds and bodies co-exist in the centre field of spirit needs! Helen / 19 January 2008 |

and then you’ll know how lovers feel when minds and bodies co-exist in the centre field of spirit needs! Dear Helen, you have touched true poetic heights with your philosophical ponderings here. That is indeed the goal that our bodies "keep in mind" and our minds wishes for "the body", perfect alignment. You know the way! love Margherita  |

Thank you, Tom. Glad you enjoyed. "Beautiful" is a word I have been pondering on lately. Is it what I see, or is it how I feel because of what I see? |
