When I close my eyes I can type my mind A black canvas until slowly Lights shimmer, maybe stars Maybe life lights pointing me In the right direction A rainbow wavers in from the left Pastel palette painting into woven Sheets of subtle that becomes brilliant All captured behind my closed eye lids A sensuous aurora dances Light green mixing with pale yellow Soft colors, soothing the brain Raining silence on troubled thoughts Restoring peace as they flicker When I close my eyes I see colors Wrapping into artistic invitation And my body dances in quiet reflection With colorful streamers tantalizing my closed eyes --- Alison |

Alison, you see more with your eyes closed than most people do with their eyes wide open! ![]() "A sensuous aurora dances Light green mixing with pale yellow Soft colors, soothing the brain Raining silence on troubled thoughts Restoring peace as they flicker" Uniquely expressive ~ and stunning! Loving hug, Linda |

very interesting write! I especially love: "A sensuous aurora dances Light green mixing with pale yellow Soft colors, soothing the brain Raining silence on troubled thoughts Restoring peace as they flicker When I close my eyes I see colors Wrapping into artistic invitation And my body dances in quiet reflection With colorful streamers tantalizing" sustained applause!! |
