Late night worries are drowned in my coffee: packing was never my strong suit -is this too much? am I taking enough? and what about my hairdryer...? the absurdities of vacation- "getting away" when I know that when I come back all I'll want is to disappear again- to get lost inside another place another time some place/any place different from here: I guess I should go to bed put this anxiety to rest and dream of flying... And tomorrow you'll drop me at the airport but a piece of my heart will stay with you- at least until I come back at least until I land. ------------------ And I thought: this is how poetry is born. It comes from invisible heights, it is secret and dark in its origins, solitary and fragrant, and like the river it will assimilate whatever falls in its current; it will seek a route between the mountains, and its crystalline song will ripple through the meadows."- Pablo Neruda |

Very appropriate and timely for this time of year. Sometimes 'getting away' is not really....I like this one, it's very good.  |

very good clear emotions, i like it ------------------ "Glory remains unaware of my neglected dwelling where alone I sing my tearful song which has charms only for me." -Charles Brugnot |
