It echoes my own pattern,
designing my walls
with a vine of both
roses and lacerations
stenciled side by side,

i seem to have acquired
a flair for it by now,
harkening to the charm
of its still irrestible call,

the heart births a sparrow;

then seeks insulation
when emptied again
of the spark that
set its wings asunder,

never as joyous,
than at the captured moment
before realization,
that its going to break
all over again.

sunday, the day after christmas 2004

(and i feel the trees shivering as i circle
the runner's trail)

Feel this one - least your out doing something good for the soul - can't stand the cold, myself, so I find myself huddled in the house -

Hope you find your blue lightens to the bright sight of sunny summer sky days -

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

ms inky
blue has a special feel to it
like warm water
that you can get into all the way

familiar feel

Never known it different, enjoyed.

"the heart births a sparrow"

~ What lovely and expressive words.
I don't think that I shall ever forget them!

May your blue turn to loving pink in 2005, Poetessa Goddessa.

From lost love to lost loved ones,
The blues can take us down.

I enjoyed your painting of your mood.  KJ

Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

then seeks insulation
when emptied again
of the spark that

love this Inky and the way it spoke to me.

into this night i wonder, it's morning that i dread, another day of knowing of, the path i fear to tread.
