In The Spaces Between


In those gaps filled with a soft sigh
In the spaces between you and I
Where looking hard I can see
What is this loves mystery?
This the quiet time of us
Flowing with no fuss
This is the time
To feel fine
To hear
A tear
Sigh
Fly
I
Fly
High
Beauty
Calls me
Out of night
It frees my flight
Lifts voice in song
Lying where I belong
Feelings of quiet’s peace
Touching brings souls release
Held in these spaces here between
Where beauty is heard & truth is seen

Quite a feat...all those time-related statements in this creative form.  Well done!

You are writing deliciously these days.

Look at you, look at you!  A masterpiece that will be [ahem] timeless!  LOL...couldn't help myself....ah Marsha, what it is to watch someone come in, saying "I can only read, I cannot write a whit" and then watch the wings spread...

you make everyone here VERY proud for I think many of us feel you've been quite the protege!...

hugs my friend....and how is Puck?

You said you couldn't write??? Unbelievable!  This just proves how wrong you were!  Keep it up.

VAS love, thank you truly, it is so nice of you to say so, and I do appreciate you reading this and taking the time to reply.
Take care love as always

Serenity love, thank you, that is a compliment from you that I don't deserve. My mentors have been working so hard to make my writing at least readable. So the credit goes to them really. Thank you muchly
Take care love
                  Mushy
                    
Kari dear heart, do you recognise these words that you dropped? I thought you might. And the compliments should go to you and the others for firstly fitting the wings, and then making me stretch them. Thank you love for it all
Take care love as always
                  Majestic puckish Marsha

All that I am and all I can now do
Is because I was taught how by you
                      
                          
Marilyn love, thank you, but the compliments definitely don't belong to me.
This came from some words Kari dropped and not wishing them to go to waste, I used them. It's a bit like giving a child some left over pastry and they make jam tarts. They are jam tarts, but you wouldn't really serve them in place of your own would you?
Thank you
Take care love
                  Mushy
                    
Margie girl, thank you dear heart, and if you hadn't showed me how I would still be wondering. I thank you for all the help and the endless hours of toil and trouble.  
And thank you for shaking out my wings too
Take care love as always
                   Mushy
                      
Cerenity love, Thank you so very very muchly,
finally my mentors get some work out of me. But don't they have to work hard to get it
Thank you again
Take care love
                     Mushy
