Not really a bother if stars collide as long as the bits don’t fall and break the back of a woman’s mind still strong in the wanting of all. Danger lurks in that place unseen; the limitless mind can ignite a fire or dependant on the state of affairs pour water onto desire for it stretches and crosses the gap between the real and unreal like a fisherman’s line cast every time into the depths of the restless sea. But no line or mind is immune to time that slams the door on background feel and sends to the front a lover unloved for the sake of conformity. Conformity – comfortable, safe, secure and time still ravages all so not really a bother if stars collide and simply one day choose to fall! Helen / 25 March 2007 |

Hi, Honey!  I especially enjoyed the following lines: ~ ..."like a fisherman’s line cast every time into the depths of the restless sea." ~ "But no line or mind is immune to time" ~ "Conformity – comfortable, safe, secure and time still ravages all" If any bits of stars were to fall upon your illustrious head, may they bestow good wishes upon you! Loving hug, Lindaq |

Maureen and Linda - Thank you, ladies! The stars have collided but I'm still alive under a heap of stardust battling to rise to full majesty like an angel into the sky!  |

Thank you Steaven for such a supportive comment. I really do appreciate it. Rae - Thank you so much. Sometimes it's a bit pointless to contemplate what's going to happen regardless. |

"so not really a bother if stars collide and simply one day choose to fall!" Yep, that's what love does to us....so well said, Helen. Gather up that star dust, my friend, and weave it into a beautiful vestment.  ...jo |

Hi, Jo. Hmm? Watch the press - I'm writing love o-u-t, out. It seems there's no time or place for it and yet it's still a wonderful world - aren't we all so lucky!  Helen |
