Still, the old rivers flow quietly through ancient sands, in sands of recollection we are stored patiently in woven memories, wrapped in soft breeze nights we slip again into the Universe through shadows’ doorways. Still, I recall holding hands, of itself a capital crime, inhaling courage unafraid in yasmin scented air beneath a sharing moon, staring through your eyes as muffled sounds of caravans brought fragile hopes of freedom. Will these memories, alive in me since birth, continue to be clarified with every dream of you, like Spring storm waters cutting new channels in the old flood plains of my soul? Will I end this life, as I have so many, watching sands of time be carried off on winds too strong to be denied, awaiting every season always awaiting miracles, lost in shadows? ©2005 by icebox |

icebox This is sad...like a fairy tale...is there ever a happy ever after? To love a princess, may not be worth the burden that you carry.  |

perhaps a hunger satiate behind the veils in step of sand that knows the doubt so better than this melodic way I am enraptured by a wave that ends upon itself and twirls again in the endless grain refrained of this and that and neverend... a dreamy eye cast I to sleep in prayers of all my memory be born as if they were brand new damn the sands and damn you too-- let's roll the thunders home. "Did I ever mention that I find you very inspirational?" serenity typed brightly.   yer a doll, mr. c love you, lovie  |

"Will I end this life, as I have so many, watching sands of time be carried off on winds too strong to be denied, awaiting every season always awaiting miracles, lost in shadows?" icebox - many ask the same question but I guess we do have a choice as to how we end our lives. Excellent write as usual - thanks. |

once again, you've left us with a flow of thoughts, dreams, and memories rolled up into a wonderfully written river of words |
