the church in toledo spain golden sun has tucked itself into a pocket of cloud waiting for rain to pass la gente people on the street have lost their color walk pálido a shelter stained glass windows cast no colors no shadows in this church el niño is seated in glory la virgen kneels on triangular rocks begs her child for consuelo comfort on her breast lie petals de la rosa pink and white mirar I whisper Maria Isabel how? you ask Maria Isabel is gone laid behind another church we kneel at la virgen’s pained feet let me kiss el verde scapular at your neck you are gone I grip the knuckle of my thumb between my teeth on la calle rain torments me stones molten sulphur and pitch and you are there face wet arms open to give me consuelo dulce |

"and you are there face wet arms open to give me consuelo dulce" Hey I didn't understand all the spanish there but that didn't stop me from being completely enthralled in this write. Perhaps added a touch of exotic mystique. Hugs and rainy crayony days, Cheye xx |

And The Lady once again slowly slips back into the shadows, leaving her mark on all those who care to read, and dare to care. I have been to Spain, tho it was only through your eyes. Sandra |
