                   On skies of blue


                   All the flat bottomed boats,
                   countless and orderly,
                   glide in ranks and rows
                   with puffed white sails
                   aglow in an afternoon's sun

                   Moored below,
                   I search expectantly
                   up through deepest air
                   in search of her dangling feet,
                   laughing


                   e

                   Congatulations, Deputy Helen !

Sigh

when you touch me
it is in a place so deep
and all the sounds heard
are a sigh

I love the concept of this.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind.
