Yes I’m watching the fluff of the cottonwood It’s falling outside like snow The violent wind’s rushing into my room To give me his cruel “no” And terrible thoughts burst into my mind I have nothing more to say The weather goes mad every time I find I’m losing my way again I’m coming to meet you through all my life In spite of the mess and lies And now that nightmare, the shattering knife It’s flashing before my eyes The shine on the floor, I wait for your flight I can not forecast the cause You look at me blindly and you pass me by And I realize the worst Oh, what’s going on, I would like to get! Though still our ties are strong My fears are naught as compared to that It’s clear that something is wrong I know you can see my soul inside out And how could I ever guess That even in case I call you and shout You won’t recognize my face So chances may come and years may pass I have nothing more to do Like Alice behind her renowned looking-glass I must run away from you And if I can’t break the transparent wall Arisen between us now The ground may be rough, the tears may roll I’ll check if the Earth is round At random I’m choosing my hazy road And maybe the stars will bless I wish you to find me! I’m praying God To hear his gracious “yes” 06/2013 |

I sense there is an inner struggle going on here, our emotions are a powerful thing indeed. Good job, nice write, and welcome to the blue sea, Gale. |

Thanks for reading, Diana! It's not just poetry ) They are blended somehow through all my life. Either it's only a coincidence or I'm so meteo-sensitive, or there is something else, but my friends often joke that my mood is like a barometer: if it's falling down - take out your umbrellas ![]() As for me, I think it's because in my childhood we've made friends with nature, and so we are like kindred spirits. Such a fantasy ![]() |

I don't know how I missed this, Gale. Yes! To all your wondering and the active searching within as you try to make the scales weigh each stanza with a . . . YES! ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

As long as the wall is transparent, things can be handled, as you and you alone are the master of your world. Excellent wording. Welcome to Pip, dear Galina. Margherita "Love is the One who masters all things; |
