~*~

Hello-o! Anybody home?!?
It's time to get the show on the road!
Knock! Knock! Wake up you numbskull!
...Is anybody in there?!?
I've been cruising along on automatic pilot
and care not where I've been or where I'm going.
...H-E-L-P!!!...I'm falling!*!
Who clipped my celestial wings?!
I'm now in a downward spiral
--A grounding experience--if I survive the crash!*!
This dose of reality can't be what the doctor ordered!
...What's that you say?
Stand up straight!? Stiff upper lip!?
Get my act together!?
...Thanks--but no thanks!
I prefer my head above the clouds
--The sun shines more brightly up there.

Just wiggle your feathers a bit and aim this way... I've got enough cushioning to share. LOL

Who needs reality anyway? *S* It's never as good as those worlds we create for ourselves to escape that reality schtuff. *S* Great write, EA... I enjoyed! *S*

This was me stretching my poetic wings and just rambling on without rhyme or reason. It was kind of fun to write this! I didn't edit a word! When I had finished it and read it, I thought to myself, "Where in heaven did this come from?!? tehe

Thank you for offering to break my fall!

Having to laugh a moment
with you on this...

knock knock indeed...

Even when the Sun is not out
methinks with you
we still fly with the angels...

I can see how it might be interpreted that way, but in actuality I was rather a shy and quiet little girl--and very studious. I obeyed all the rules and followed the 10 Commandments--I guess you could say that I was quite "boring"! tehe

Angels do belong above the clouds don't they? You're most welcome above and below. This is the first poem I read on the forum and it picked me up on what's been a most dreary day. Thanks

(smiles) Oh my gosh, I too would want to be that way, sweet friend, for to be over the clouds would be the most gorgeous feeling to me because I love the heavens and the sun is bright up there and I'd love to see unicorns and rainbows! (kiss on cheek) This is gorgeous, sweet friend, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Thanks for the lift today, Linda...
I loved this ramble of yours... and maybe I'll even try to get my head into those same clouds too...  We sure have enough of them today

Well, I'm pleased that these ramblings of mine gave you a lift. Sorry to hear your day has been "dark and dreary" thus far. Hopefully the reading of more poetry will make your spirits rise!

Hey sweetie, I will definitely be there to catch you. I'm never going to let you fall or have your head be out of the clouds.

There is joy, magic and fantasy in these clouds of ours. Nope, no way, are you leaving or falling. I've got the silver thread to sew up the clips and faery dust to make it all better. Soon you'll be as dandy new as before.

Ramblin sister signing off now ....

This was certainly fun....'M'

My dear friend, that was one of the sweetest and kindest replies that I have ever received. My eyes literally filled with tears and I got a little lump in my throat. I know that I'm a sentimental mushpot, but your words really touched me. Thank you so much!

luvya lots!
Linda
