Shine your brightest wink your most We are all fireflies of heavens glow, Part of the greenery and waters flow. A light within a periods clime And very short in earthly time. I think of us as fireflies, A moments light and then goodbye. To add another pinch of dust, Upon this common earthly crust. Therefore I am prone to say, Enjoy each moments light of stay. Know the paradox of coalesce. And don't complain and make a mess. We are each, a candle I say, A light in the dark, in a way. Each create a shadows flare, And each a point of declare. So shine your brightest, wink your most And be the best your single toast. |

Seymore....Yanno?..I'm gettin' to hate you as much as I do Balladeer! I'm sick and tired of all these talented people, with such great artistry and wisdom posting such stuff!.....I guess what ya wrote here is pretty damn good...in fact I know it is!....But being a Toerag, I've learned one thing about myself......"A wink's as good as a nod to a blind mule".....The story of my life!! |

What wise and encouraging words I can live with the idea That we are merely actors Playing a part But I do wish Whoever is writing my script Would learn to use A few more Happy Endings ~Javan |

Not only emazed by the wisdom But by the words also Wow. The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |
