In the magenta mist that settles slowly over the edges of the nearby still lake, the dirt of the day washes away from mind's eyes and memory's banks. Small bone fragments still surface randomly, unannounced reminders of the skull slapping suffered so long ago from the hands of a souless mate. Timeless images of cave man art trigger menacing memories, re-enforcing reasons to continue sheering the stressed tresses of yesterday, allowing soul and body space to step away from the face of fear. You are woman strong. Resilient as the willow, with will of steel no gale force shall ever bend again. Make your stand permanent, Gibralter. *to all the sisterhood* |

Not sure where this came from? But holding on to the women who know....because. |

seems the depths this dwells in and came from to be deep indeed... well done KC... very well done... and that lotus must surely be a thing of beauty.. |

Thanks, Karilea. It comes from deep within, and from sharing realities. Ron, yes, some wells are very deep. And the lotus smiles, in blush. |

This is simply brilliant Kacy! Your words give me hope and will hold me up when I'm sinking, and/or keep me from getting too close to the edge. Bravo Woman!!! |
