Long these layers lie Undisturbed Their fossils now exposed Unlike the turn of thoughts Which you churn inside This my muddied knee stained Mind And if I should measure How in slow deposit I’ve collected All the things that died Between us Would it be too deep For simple ladders Climb Or perhaps I’d find It all too brittle This the fragile kind Of memory You left behind In turn again And with lift of stone I pile another on the line One staggered joint Follow next And I leave the study Of ancient times To those who know more Than one who simply Chips at stone [This message has been edited by Cpat Hair (02-12-2004 11:35 AM).] |

Good Morning Master!!!! I clicked on Pip and smiled when I saw your offering.... Sometimes we have to take a look at those fragile stones...and move on to a stronger pile....  "sit on top of the world and tell me how you feel...'cause what you feel is what I feel for you.." |

"This my muddied knee stained Mind And if I should measure How in slow deposit I’ve collected All the things that died Between us Would it be too deep For simple ladders Climb Or perhaps I’d find It all too brittle This the fragile kind Of memory You left behind" Great write Ron, from the surface chipping to the deeper exploration...I truly enjoyed!!  |

"And I leave the study Of ancient times To those who know more Than one who simply Chips at stone"  Nice...but then, I know what you know and I know that you know and the presumption of knowledge is a folly at best...so, well said! |

Ahh was wonderin where you were Cpat. A most wonderful way to start the morning; reading your amazing work.. yes it is Keeping this one. M Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

Or perhaps I’d find It all too brittle This the fragile kind Of memory You left behind I see others like the same lines you left behind. Ron, a deep write, one that I can read over and over and still am not sure I see behind those walls of yours. hugs and Have A Happy Valentine's Day M |

Oh, well done! You chose your metaphor and stuck to it, and painted me a picture and made me feel the emotion behind it. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

Nice one Ron, enjoyed this It appears you have kept your rapier honed perhaps one day we can engage, en guarde again, to show this place a word duel. Really, you must admit they were fun. Oh never mind the current name Regards and compliments Capitain Le Vision "Sooner or later, Death makes a believer out of just about everyone." |
