First I thought it was the heart and then I thought of body parts but now I know it’s just the mind wherein love resides. But heaven plays upon the heart and mind here like a small bit part to not see, feel, and always know two halves make up a whole. When known it makes of life a farce; why suffer so that lack of half and entrench the never meant to be as if I made it so for me. I never did, you know not me and so I wait unhappily for this the present to be past and find again my other half. Truth be known I cannot lie I found it in the sphere of time that round and round lives in pretend until that last and final blend. But of blends the parts must intertwine and flow together through all time yet, no, no, no, I’m left un-whole to find love in the soul! Helen / 16 February 2008 |

Could well be seeing as I spent 14 years in Zimbabwe but not long enough to change an entrenched English South African accent. And now I must ask why you ask? You may soon be able to hear it at my home page but the word "soon" is such a flexible word. |

quote: the perfect ending, dear Helen. A beautiful piece in search of LOVE. It IS, being the essence of life, it simply IS, but we go on searching, somehow not trusting that it can actually BE breathed in, inhaled and exhaled, in a continuous flow of LIFE. It will be nice to hear your voice! love and hugs Margherita |

Thanks Margherita! My son is the one working on putting audio up so if it's possible it will be done. You understand so well what I'm saying that it makes writing a pleasure. Thank you so very much for that. Helen |

Oh dear Linda you do make me laugh and I surely do need to. It's a progression, you know. All things lead to the soul (actually the "spirit" but "soul" has better connotations to it) and believe you me when spirits unite, body parts ... hmm? ... I guess "play their part" is explicit enough. One can surely know when bodies unite without the spirit playing its part - yes, one can know! Hugs Helen |
