Yeah, yeah, yeah, and love reviled no honour to the soul on its after midnight rise into consciousness and it bears this punch and kick like a stalwart soldier trained to duck and dive, retaliate in ways I cannot know. To find again true form and shape like trying to cut through steel with the rays of hopeful eyes or lifting covers heavy from insightful minds because soul not made to fight chooses rather to lay down extraordinary penalties on dismissive humankind. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I’m human too and who on earth can bow to an after midnight rise of the now unknown? Yet soul still leaves a trail of happiness and pain begging, pleading, follow me but everybody knows leaders loiter in the background goading and encouraging soldiers into battle. There’s a trick – yeah, yeah, sleep before the midnight rise and you’ll never have to bend individual will into the betterment of all. Helen / 21 May 2006 |

Thanks, Dixie. You see, finding soul sort of demands that you bend but to sleep on the surface of existence and, wow, who knows what will happen to life. |

"with the rays of hopeful eyes" ~ and your little bag of tricks, you can overcome and master anything that you should so choose!  Hugs with love, Linda  |

Margherita, Sunshine, and Linda - thank you so much for reading. Dave - I'm not sure here but the wanting to and choosing not to maybe a little bit of avoidance ... of thought ~ guilt perhaps ~ but, hey, we're all human.  And Sunshine I think there's always more behind each and every penning on the board - some make it obvious and some not so. Linda - Yes, perhaps the secret is not what befalls but the overcoming thereof. Marherita - Your comment is much appreciated. Thanks. |

"Yet soul still leaves a trail of happiness and pain begging, pleading, follow me but everybody knows leaders loiter in the background goading and encouraging soldiers into battle." Enjoyed the read. |
