should the lily leave the field or the sand separate from the shore? should the sparkle depart from twilight or shining disappear from beams of moon? yet, i find myself alone and though we speak with words electric i find myself alone, as though that seclusion were an asset and the sweet sorrow of parting could be understood, though we find ourselves unknown, distracted, desolate—we never even meet to share, to care, to cherish life’s moments in its time that happens to all who truly live it altogether together |

Certainty and security, as time blows it's winds upon our lives. Sometimes, it carries the sand, and sometimes reroots the lily... When it's right, they find themselves altogether together. A process of gliding |

ah TD, as grasshoppa sits before the master with legs crossed and head bowed in reverence, he ponders the wind as a gust slaps him in the face bringing with it a lily covered in sand...and he is struck with the essence of the master's wisdom... thank you for reading and commenting... |

"i find myself alone, as though that seclusion were an asset" Wow ... "asset." This thought provoking piece made me think ... Gee, I hope I always choose to "live it altogether together." Powerful write here! Enjoyed. always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same |

Not only was I captivated by the images and concept of your profound and poetic piece of writing, I also appreciated the beauty and wisdom of the replies that it received ~ as well as the response that you wrote. Loving Light, Linda |
