Ladies come in, watch your step
into our little paradise
the figures you see along the wall might blink
they are the old owners of a proud domain.
This door leads onto a ringed planet
a side door will take you to its Titian satellite
There is a young boy there watering a rose
you will not see any suspended clothes..

As we get to the staircase that winds
hold on carefully, it has a mind of its own
you'll find...
expressive portraits on the wall
look ahead to avoid any abrupt fall..

When you get through to the top
there is a look out from a turret
a cuckoo will call the hours that pass
a faithful way not to miss morning mass
just keep moving right along
don't hold up others with your throng...

okay, ecrivan, did you have something weird for breakfast

it's like Andy Warhol and Picasso locked heads and came up in a sci-fi fantasy

fascinating images

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Interesting brocade of the finest tapestry...ladies wore these in layers over stiff petticoats in the day.
Always admire your unique style. ThisDiamond

Vas,

Sy,

Diamond,

uniqueness I agree....but then there is mirror man who I haven't read in a while,
Opeth with soul gripping stuff and so many others
