                DEJA VUE

  Are these dreams
         these errant scenes
  That flit briefly,even waking
         through my mind?

  Vibrant faces.bits of melody, conversations,
         moving all to quickly for me to find
  The common thread I know must bind me,
         to these other faces,past and future
  Other places, other times.

  Times I've lived am living now in parallel
         Lives of love and joy ethereal,
  And greener grass perhaps than should be mine.

  From times and places I have not known
         come visions surreal
  Of quiet roads and landscapes
         other hearths and homes
  Where dusk descends through mystic mountain  
         sunsets,
  On sheltered valley towns.
  House and street lamps flicker softly
         and cool still air
  Gives echo to the hounds.

  Imagined lives of other beings
         interwound with mine
  Living breathing loving
         straining each to find
  The common source from which
         our crossing  paths combine.

  Do they know as they travel each
         their solitary way,
  My passing image drifting by is a
         strand of living tapestry
  That will complete itself one day?

  Do they gather  heart and strength as I
         to know we're not alone?
  But all a part of one loving soul
         on a wondrous journey home.

whipsnade,
  This is just awesome.  What a mystical ethereal quality which suggest the blending of lives and experience, though far removed perhaps physically yet touching and reaching out to each others as we all progress on our own set course.  This is a wonderfully delightful work-which I am sure many will draw good from.  Thank you, David

Dear Whipsnade: Oh my, I just reread this to my daughter, Emily, and we both said at the same time,     "isn't that beautiful"!  The picture you painted is truly a masterpiece. This is a rare and masterful work of art. Thank you so much for sharing your gift here with all of us.   Ellie

   Thank you deleeme,ellie,bonnie and  white dove for your generous praise. This being a "debut" of sorts I'm rather overwhelmed  with the idea that my thoughts put into words have been   adequately conveyed so as to connect with other minds. Your'e all used to that but its pretty heady stuff for  me.
      Thanks again

Dear whipsnade, I went back to re-read this and discovered I failed to post a reply;
I agree with all the above, "simply breathtaking". So sweet of you to add a tribute to Cassie and Bsc. Can't wait to read more from you.
Bless You, Marcy

Know thyself, we're told, and you've painted the true picture of who we all are...God's children constantly growing or changing by the experiences and people on our path of life.  Your talent truly shines in your work!
