Wind comes without warning, cold is free for asking, winter's night never lies to its boarders; children live believing they're the first to see a truth, their passions flower briefly and are gone. We move in waves, from shore to shore from thought to thought from life to life, the patterns all get lost in winding trails, life lines drawn from sad conclusions memories left quietly among the broken dreams bad choices - theories that fail. There is no mystery in life, just opportunities to pass beyond the need for majesty and pride; there's life and death, agreements and arrangements just reflections, always moving changing choices choosing changes. ©2003 by icebox |

This poem touched me in ways that you would never know. So many emotions run throughout this poem it is almost overwhelming. Great write. |

"There is no mystery in life, just opportunities to pass beyond the need for majesty and pride; there's life and death, agreements and arrangements just reflections, always moving changing choices choosing changes." I always enjoy the wisdom of your words, and this is no exception. Wonderfully done. Hugs to you, friend... If you judge people, you have no time to love them. |

Icebox: I know these things, but you "force" me to think about them, and it makes my head swim. Thank you, I think.. ~K~ |

"changing choices choosing changes." Absolutely, Icebox, though I must sometimes wonder if we, ourselves, do all that and whether we'll ever actually get anywhere ... eventually, that is. Thank you for your poems - I never miss one of them! |
