Soon the dead will come alive and bud a view of awesome feel but too the rain and thunder storms to break and mutilate the stems that hold aloft the fragile. Oh, let it come; it always does this manifest of start and end except for the Ferris wheel of love round and round and round again asking, maybe praying, “Please let me go somewhere”. Buckled up and chained within love strains against confinement but dizzy from the swing up/down the knots can’t be undone. Within the heart a spirit call demands the up of energy and I love the freedom of the sky where minds create reality. Down with a bang perceptions clash and love’s intent falls flat destined to always be disowned until the awakening. Awake with love one morning please to greet the rising dawn and walk it to the last sunset so love can say it's been somewhere! Helen / 24 August 2007 |

Thanks M - much appreciate your comment. Jo - thank you. Sometimes love is slow to come and when it does, we don't know what it is but, lo and behold, we find that it has always been. |

Thanks, JL. A sunny smile always brightens up the greyest of days. It's a grey day in South Africa today. |
