Reflections Touch the water of reflection It drifts into eternity Break the smooth of its connection It circles to infinity You cannot hold onto a dream It’s made of vapors mist undone And though it has desires gleam It disappears in morning’s sun Take the night for what its worth The treasures that the mind will wring Those fancy phantoms of the earth The knights and queens that love will bring So cast your net upon the sea And reap the bounty that you get Play the mist that brews the tea And never weigh it as a debt It is a gift of night time order Unless, unless you touch the water |

So cast your net upon the sea And reap the bounty that you get Play the mist that brews the tea And never weigh it as a debt you've been sippin coffee with the ocean again, haven't you? seems like we're on the same wavelength this morn.... Morning Sy, Happy Monday |

Seymour, this is so beautiful. As always! I do alot of reflecting. As for dreams, I have hung onto quite a few. Maybe it is time for me to let go of some of those dreams. |

"Touch the water of reflection It drifts into eternity Break the smooth of its connection It circles to infinity" As soft and gentle as a whisper ...or a lover's sigh. Beautiful write dear Sy. & , Nancy In the midst of winter, |

Well Sir Sy...you have outdone yourself with this one. Too many of us are afraid to touch the water, afraid that our dreams will disappear. Well done my friend. Bea |
