One, two, three - and - step to the left, step to the right, come to the middle and shake your thoughts about then stretch, go on stretch, up, up, and further up, beyond the common everyday reach of mortal minds. It hurts in the muscles? That muscle called a heart? Oh, I thought you always knew that this exercise of mind pumps the pain of change in/out, in/out, in/out, like a steam train in puff and strain through sun and rain. You fell? Goodness me! That’s no catastrophe! Look here and here! Holes in soul have disappeared for knowing there is love when all is said and done. You want it now? Be a dear and walk with me along life’s pebbled road barefoot and all alone then climb the mountainside of all you feel inside before swimming in the sea of try, try, again. Yes, it’s like a treadmill but only for a time the sweat and tears, heartache, fear, and uncertainty, before the suppleness of connectedness surpasses the blockages of entrenched beliefs. What then? Well, I must say too curious by far but I never promised knowledge as an addendum or a body beautiful instead of how you are So, there you are - that’s that - when you stretch you snap right back!

Martie - Absolutely stunning! One actually has to have been there to truly understand and yes, "it will need tears" - mine have been falling for longer than they were meant to. Please, please, repost it, Martie, for me and the newbies. Thanks, James, for the read. Much appreciated. |

Never to the same spot - try it with a rubber band sometime! Thanks, Jo!  |
