flowing robes of "maybe next year" seducing like wheezing candle flames under the scarred flesh of sensibility like a train banging on the doors of pathetic innocence i say pathetic, because destroying sacred brushes owning natural grace means nothing anymore it's always somebody else's family gripping humanity, like some chocking spandex, for some new age travelers social suicide…. irrational passions of sea gulls in the air don't have much to say anymore, their dominating presence spotlights sea green color, plagued by crude oil turning them pitch black like ravens, barely alive… picking carcasses of the dead 2 different versions of me feathers tickling cliff edges waves lapping twilight by the sea i prefer, not being short changed rendering to the strange morning cart that takes me back to childhood years i always knew somehow….someway parallel worlds embossed emotions from the other side by maybe a thousand years or so so those "maybe next year" songs don't turn into shoulda, coulda, woulda's my god! the marsh grass has grown hasn't it? into something so worth remembering as it sways in the breeze transfixing me with it's searching glance as does the love affair with a timeless world so, I pull on my knickers and run outside skipping & humming "We're Off To See The Wizard" |

Your tornadic dustdevil words always leave me in a spin, young lady. Enjoyed this one for all of the places it threw me...  |

Lee, I love your "free flowing innocence" ~ and Sunshine's reply! That is ditto for me! It is difficult for Nature to retain its innocence when Man keeps on disrespecting our Mother Earth. Another fine write from your illustrious pen ~ and your spirit. Love you! Linda P.S. It is always a treat to find a title with your name next to it!  |

LeeJ - I want to say a lot but it all comes back down to "amazing". I have missed your words and hope they will be more free flowing from now on. Oh, perhaps wait until my new pc is up and running because then I'll have more time here. I'm on borrowed time at the moment. Look after you. Helen |

“The Wonderful Wizard of Oz” What an extraordinary read, and from a delightfully poignant poet. JL  |
