She stood there in the moonlight. I had to stop to see, and so did the moon, and the stars, and the breeze that touched her hair, and the yellow darkness, even the wholeness of the night! The light shines upon the harlot and, As well, shines on me for whatever I am . . . [This message has been edited by gilead (06-02-2008 05:06 PM).] |

I keep coming back to Walt Whitman's enduring line--- ". . . for every atom that belongs to me, as well belongs to you." Art |
