I remember the gyspy woman spell when she pushed whispers into mud and moved her hands through the smoke stirring it into tomorrow color shadows she said I would always be as one with stone knowing how deep the cold feels within but appreciating the sun on dawn mornings and the rains when they come in september she said I would be at the edge of heaven where only the tides touched my sides and moss would never know of my brow as it would not linger long enough to grow she said I would taste of the love trees when their scent was redwood on evening and that I would move with sand quakes into the shuddering throws of thunder and after I would be as one who is stone _____________ daark |

"after, one who is stone", you could also change to sand that is held in open palm. Ms. e |

she said I would be at the edge of heaven where only the tides touched my sides and moss would never know of my brow as it would not linger long enough to grow ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'm thinking I'm gonna put that on my headstone, here lies bluezy at the edge... I will be sure to give the writer credit, written in the dark, of course. |

They do say if you look back you will turn to stone, but sometimes stone is better then being paper thin so easily torn .... The stone that never breaks .... Like a rock!!!! ~~~kingsangel~~~ |
