Faint glows of daylight avalanched the eastern sky down wind free falling was naked silence wildly dancing along with the insane frenzy of the vein of a new day… boiling proud, then prouder, like applause I sat in obsess of this face of sunup thoughts running amuck like a lady searching aimlessly for some little girl that she cannot live without déjà vu grabbed me by the arm “yes”, I thought, “I am the slow motion incantation of another life” perhaps…. the next day skeptic continuing possibility or a child habitat for humanity, intimately wrapped around each and every moment that crawls through the undergrowth of my own traditional ways then like flashing red numbers on a digital clock scream “It’s time to get up” a child woman, howls through the silence with maternal instincts painting God, across this special time I know it was He, because of the forever feelings, that pierced my whole being charity removed it’s clothes and wrapped around me I’m sitting on a melody, waiting for the notes to write my life across the sky of song and there are times I still suck my thumb in those oceans of memories where the whispers sometime laugh but in this human world, I’m still holding onto that white robe of dreams inside thoughts I realize the benevolence of a thing and realize death I realize the sudden knock of life at my invisible door how many ways can one benefit from tragedy? My body prepared for the ceremony it was very early morning still when i awoke on a beach of endless tomorrows and those faint glows of daylight got up and walked with me, to the sea and that child and woman, formed a stronger bond, between them…they are now together through out eternity…an arrangement by the journey |

What a pleasure to read this on my return although it has rendered me somewhat speechless. Your insight is astounding and expression equally so. LeeJ - you're still amazing! |

LeeJ You are so word glorious...I can almost see this colorful globe inside you where they fall from. "how many ways can one benefit from tragedy?" Not sure, but tis true. Hugging you! |
