It's all so easy can't you see? give a flower to the tainted lady that clutches her holy book smile at her; tell her to pass it round and smell forgiveness beneath the ground tell her to sail on; her motive was born deep within the well of love like most are afterall it's seems so easy when the inner child shows herself luring me back beneath the undertow to drift beside her and live the here and now gather shooting stars as they land wrap them up in bows of gold redeem them on a frozen night when faith has dimmed, into just mere glow 49 candles coming round what have i learned? not a thing......... but this i know: i'll never wear the poise or grace that shouds the rose, my flower inked feet, for now, just plants that pot this wobbling ground but dreams metamorphasize at moments when i lose and find my self deep within the blessed solace of the undertow |

"it's seems so easy when the inner child shows herself luring me back beneath the undertow to drift beside her and live the here and now" I loved the depth in this, Inkedgoddess ... much to ponder as days pass us by and we look back in review. I very much enjoyed your thoughts, well done.  Best wishes, /Kit |

Amazing write, dear Michelle! gather shooting stars as they land wrap them up in bows of gold redeem them on a frozen night when faith has dimmed, into just mere glow You are in the flow and your awareness is beautiful. You HAVE learned and will continue to learn, as we all do ... non stop. Love and hugs. Margherita |

I think most people would be more then satisfied, to know just half of what you know, in their whole lifetime. And undertow or not, I do see the poise and grace of a rose, all around you I’m sure that, everyone else does too This was great Michelle |

For a moment, seashells tossed along the shore glittering sun-drenched they vanish so suddenly, swept up in the undertow. ~P swept back in the ocean's abyss or littering the shoreline the sea's echo forever in the heart of the shell (and michele [This message has been edited by inkedgoddess (02-24-2004 12:13 AM).] |
