Uniqueness by its definition seams
Portending on the outskirts vision streams
Without mercy iridescent white recedes
Through my fingers each articulate but beads
At the wall my feelings round each stone defiant
And dead ahead too far to see the dawn reliant
The weather wanes in creeking yawn a sober single
For up is up and not is prone atone and mingle
Withdrawn the light in sleepy eyes a jewel case closed
Where mission bells a hymn pray tells the rare reposed
In rosary each memory slips through my fingers
To let be said where life has led and magic lingers
A gem is born the cusp of morn in twilight murmur
Enfolded here in dreams so shear a carat further
Along the veil of dusk made pale a moment waking
All but the heart will set apart still in the making
For in this time of yours and mine the stretch of timeless
Unique the shape itself to drape in spells cast crimeless

You ride your chariot of laughter well.  and
write a symphony,  that we all might sit back
and listen to a beautiful song.

Nice write Kiddo....

Beautiful
assaults me
both barrels
loaded
I'm the willing
victim
splayed out
for all to witness
reject
and mold
into
the perfect martyr

Lovely -- I can sense the thoughts as each bead is fingered.

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

beautiful written--though I admit to having no knowledge of rosary beads, but you have given me more knowledge in these words then I have had in my whole life.
