Within the holy tome of breath open to the sky's watch, the dropping-down stars consort with the bubblegum and comic books of my old belief. Under this cloth of pink air, who listens as I dream, beating my thoughts into words, while not even birds awake? Time takes me forward as I come screeching back, my talons whipping clouds into rain and my innocent eyes alive. Fragile, like a leaf the paper tears, darned to the fabric of time with ancient, wizened, invisible hands that gather pages I will write, new. |

I know this poem. I love when I read something new that is familiar and you do that to me alot. (I just hate when this happens in a cold sweat.) My sweet Marite! You do have a way of isolating those indefinable moments!  and  check your e mail! |

You made me remember just now, the dream I had last evening...I will have to share it with you...it was one of those that for all of its curious kookiness, I know you will understand it... I think. You made me smell the bubblegum sky... |

Martie, you certainly do have a poetic way with words!  "Under this cloth of pink air, who listens as I dream, beating my thoughts into words, while not even birds awake?" Smiling here and nodding with understanding. You are so talented, Ms Flowers! Loving hug, Linda |

an interesting 'penning!' This is especially fine!: "Fragile, like a leaf the paper tears, darned to the fabric of time with ancient, wizened, invisible hands that gather pages I will write..." applause! |

Dear Martie, Thank you for this. So dreamlike in its' quality, yet easily transferred to the waking world. A talent you have portrayed uncountable times. Doc |

I'm with Karen on this one... You do have a way with inconspicuous moments. Roger Waters: ...just another brick in the wall. lucky dale |
