With All That I Am Morph of wind and rain Deep roots and winsome limbs Stretching into the heat of ancient mines Reaching for the light of stars Mother earth and Father times Call me daughter I am maleable strength Set into diamonds Starlight sees and whispers roar Escapades on funnybone shore Effervessence corked too tight Lifts the roof, let out at night Warm if the tempo is just right But only you would know If observed the wind to blow If deserved one gasping glow Cause Momma didn’t raise no fool An hourglass is not a tool for sport More than blooms with stems cut short Morph of wind and rain Copyright Kkh 12/5/07 |

I am maleable strength Set into diamonds Starlight sees and whispers roar Escapades on funnybone shore Effervessence corked too tight Lifts the roof, let out at night Warm if the tempo is just right love this especially, Kathleen~~ M |

TD Cause Momma didn’t raise no fool An hourglass is not a tool for sport More than blooms with stems cut short I want you to know how much I appreciate the above lines...and you.  |

"An hourglass is not a tool for sport" - this takes me on a journey of the past. I enjoyed this so much, it was hard to find the lines that caught me up the tightest. |
