Sometimes
In a white dress
Diaphanous

Or a long wool coat
With its collar up
A pull over sweater
And pale blue jeans

A new born fawn
With soft brown eyes
A kitten playing
With a ball of string

Azure skies
A golden moon
Through autumn leaves
The rising and ebbing
Tides of the sea

I never
Dream you
As intelligent

I just realized that
Today

Sometimes intelligence
is knowing when to just allow
visions to be kept.

Updike had one of his fictional women say that men just "like to hit or be hit." Pulchritude is a visceral, hard-wired hit; intelligence takes a little longer.

Great write, and I appreciate the snow-queen imagery.

John, enjoyed reading you this morning.

I sometimes wonder why some feel that way when not dreaming.(left over pity-me morning)
