The Other Side Is it the law of the universe This endless expansion and contraction While creation concentrates about Vacant spaces devoid of light? Or, is it a matter of perspective from my point of reference which drifts farther away From everything else Juju -Juju -"So you found a girl Who thinks really deep thoughts What's so amazing about really deep thoughts " Silent all these Years, Tori Amos [This message has been edited by Juju (05-13-2015 12:00 PM).] |

We, some of us, gravitate toward "spaces devoid of light," and have meaningful dialogue within ourselves whether to drift into it foolhardily or step back. ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

I think this is the best piece I have seen from you, Juju. that's because I am totally biased to things I relate to I am sure, but even so, this is great. It's a tough thing to bear witness to creations light when you feel you're slipping off in the other direction. I have found though, many beautiful things are created in darkness as well. Michael |

Excellent poem, dear Juju! Very good comments too. I love your "universal" approach to the alternation of light and dark. We can't know either of it without the other. Light is usually associated with life-creation, but the seeds must first experience the darkness. So ... Love, Margherita |
