Touching a midnite dream Surround yourself with celestial scents, sweet coastal sage, essence of ancient yew; touch the innermost spirit, feel the deepest heartbeat of you. Release your mind to the cool of an ocean-breeze. Feel the moist sand as you kneel in thought, listen to the whispering winds sing through the trees. Absorb Earth's timeless warmth in serene sunset-gold. These are sensations you can never forget. Feel the touch of magic in midnight dreams, and spend your time, in never-regret. * namaste Midnitesun |

Once again, I can only reiterate, Ms. Stafford writes 'social impact/conscience' poems with Jeffersonian purity and Nature/Gaia works (such as this grand-fine example) with Thoreauvian purity! most serious, long-sustained applause! [another of those poetic 'standing ovations'!!] |

omph! what was that? I believe this hit me in my solar plexus. I also believe in that feeling you described there. Lovely! (and a big thanks for all your kind comments on my stuff. I've yet to repay you...) "Hey, it's me, I'm dynamite and I don't know why" -- Van Morrison, 'Sweet Thing' |
