tiny lilacs
mysteries
dark secrets
in disguise of light
hyacinth
within the mind
in greedy breed
becoming blight...

a shadow
in the sun
shines grow
remember
what we
used to know...

a sunbeam clean
in evergreen,
and every fern
is leaf in growth,
a yearning furled
unto itself--
like fingers curled,

as if they know...

an ocean of you,
what if I told you,
what if I said
that I love you
do we dare cross
that line between your
heart and mine~

========================


they know...and? they know that you know that I know that you know
and I love knowing what you know...love reading what you know too..love the imagery in this as well...
bet you were barefoot and diggin in the dirt again.

... and I don't know why ...
Why should love come down and just sweep me away
I want to fly ... but there are so many things in my way.

(sigh) I wasn't too sure either, but it appeared to me like a harbinger of spring re-fashioning that was long forgotten during the winter that comes back to greet us once more with the flowers of joy and hope! (big hugggssssss) This is breathtaking, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

LOL! That's because gals always act like they know whether they know or not!

I am absolutely sure and without a doubt certain that I don't know...
