It's hidden in the "between the lines" of aging: either fear or contentment where traditions of old are imprisoned in the mind where each step forward is a reminder of yesterday where peacefulness crawls under a coverlet of dreams where security is holding onto one's self where the wondering is daily and the unknown is always... a moment away. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Profound ponderings, dear Maureen. In a way it is exciting that the "unknown is always just moments away ...". We are in the flow, wrapped in dreams, past and hopes and an ever present veil of melancholy ... We ARE! Enjoyed your beautiful poem very much. Love, Margherita |

nakdthoughts: Your Muse today is full of philosophical musings. Thoughtful piece of art that I find just a little depressing: it has an autumn feel to it...sort of the sadness of winter's onset without the hope of spring. Nicely done.

"where peacefulness crawls under a coverlet of dreams" ~ Let me keep that thought! ~ and recall it every night as I slip off to slumber... I enjoy reading your contemplative ponderings. I undersand them. Sweet dreams! Linda |

It is now Tuesday morning, and I thank you for the kind responses. If seeming a bit depressing, it is only because lately I am realizing my time that is left... M |
