Cornucopia

That clinging word in your voice,
you wish I could have been him…

You are too elegant, too infamous
for the likes of my whim…

He couldn’t be found at the shore.
Nor was he the one, knocking at your door…

Yet your eyes chase the wind,
hoping to find him…

Are you not aware that you are free?
Building castles is not in my repertoire…

My love and life is within me
It is the warm white sands
and the crystal blue sea…

"My love and life is within me

~ Then you, yourself, are a veritable horn of plenty!

Love & Light,

I simply pause in awe.  The content, the manner, the apparent calmness in which this was created...

and as it should be....sounds of reality written sailing across the emense azure bluebird of a crystal blue sea

and those last 3 lines describe me as well
Thank you always for your food of plenty

JL~  This was short but powerful.

I enjoyed very much.
