settled into a South Louisiana swamp with towering trees flowers I know not the name I am alone with my jug of wine I've always heard if you drink alone you are lost forever I do not subscribe to that I raise my glass to the all-knowing moon to drink with me and old man moon does indeed take part in my solitude by letting me to see my reflection in the wine he has captured the three of us for I have a specter with me constantly my shadow the moon is bright enough for it to be seen but when I cannot see the specter he is still there my doppelganger my constant I dance a simple step giving into the moment these two are all the friends I need at the moment oh, I do have friends not many, but then I don't crave many I feel fine along with my doppelganger and the moon deep in the vastness of the Milky Way ~*~ If they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

interesting 'write!' ... and with the realization that the "Milky Way" is only one of hundreds of billions of other galaxies ... it is truly rather humbling and 'mind-boggling' ... |

You have put the beautiful in bayou for those of us that can only imagine gators and snakes and a blackness of tress to get lost in. Thanks for sharing YOUR vision. Lori  |
