Loosing North there is an angry sea out there and it has touched our calm where days before I had seen the water smooth as glass I do not know where it came from crashing waves of words breaking the surface some surprising force unknown blown lulled by the tender easy sailing I fell asleep I dreamed I slept safe in a house of light pulled from the tidal drown I felt home waking to find it just a salty illusion fear to disturb both my days and nights in my dreams I had seen my north now I have hit the rocks and sails have no steer silent upset canvas shows no movement I taste the salt and I have lost my direction "Tough times never last...tough people do." carol gardner [This message has been edited by 1slick_lady (11-13-2003 10:26 AM).] |

It can be a blessing, to be becalmed...especially when you're against the rocks. You know what happens next, and how to do it -- don't you. I've seen you do it, and I'm confident you'll make it happen this time too. Go ahead...it's not far. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
