She spreads her wings spanning higher ground for a branch that will hold providing shelter from the storm instead of becoming one with the run off. Where a fly by night flies by night slapping flies on the wall and time gets away behind clouds and assorted cloaks that fall from grace. While banging his head against window sills feigning a jilted lover makes me wonder about trees that need watering not the ones wrapped in cellophane for some kind of perverse pleasure that flies by night. |

With their magic branches trees tap the sky transforming our tears into glorious cloaks of the nightstorm *********************** the little blonde birdie will shake off the storms afterall afterall |

I enjoy this, But I think I need a Thesaurus to help me understand it. Or maybe It just needs to be, to be enjoyed. |

The measureable parts of relationships seem to get much more complicated with each moment of passing time. In many ways I can relate to what you have penned here. I don't know that they are the same as yours but I can relate to my own. I will definitely have to reread a few times. Very much enjoyed. |

I detect a certain sinister sound in this composition, but the main tone I perceive is unmistakably related to conscious feminine power. Great write. Love, Margherita |

"She spreads her wings spanning higher ground for a branch that will hold providing shelter from the storm instead of becoming one with the run off." Bluesy gal - This I understand only too well. I don't know much but I do know that the branch was found. Keep writing because you do it so well - you always have, you know. Helen |

Oh I like the way you move from one meaning to another, and you keep me hopping along behind you. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

"She spreads her wings spanning higher ground for a branch that will hold" ~ As soon as I started reading, the above lines had already given me pause in ponder. I too have done likewise, but alas, there have been times when the branch did not hold... May your wings keep you flying high and free and above the madding crowds! Linda |

"and time gets away behind clouds and assorted cloaks that fall from grace." Wow, so many juicy lines in this write! "about trees that need watering not the ones wrapped in cellophane" Dang! lady I just read this entire thing again ... mercy ... for me this piece radiates with double entendre and boundless interpretations. Wow, I definitely adore reading something that does not limit one's mind with boundaries. Enjoyed! Excellent write! Janette always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same |

I agree with Maureen. You should rest your wings and treat us with something to read. |
