DEJA VUE Are these dreams these errant scenes That flit briefly,even waking through my mind? Vibrant faces.bits of melody, conversations, moving all to quickly for me to find The common thread I know must bind me, to these other faces,past and future Other places, other times. Times I've lived am living now in parallel Lives of love and joy ethereal, And greener grass perhaps than should be mine. From times and places I have not known come visions surreal Of quiet roads and landscapes other hearths and homes Where dusk descends through mystic mountain sunsets, On sheltered valley towns. House and street lamps flicker softly and cool still air Gives echo to the hounds. Imagined lives of other beings interwound with mine Living breathing loving straining each to find The common source from which our crossing paths combine. Do they know as they travel each their solitary way, My passing image drifting by is a strand of living tapestry That will complete itself one day? Do they gather heart and strength as I to know we're not alone? But all a part of one loving soul on a wondrous journey home. |

whipsnade, This is just awesome. What a mystical ethereal quality which suggest the blending of lives and experience, though far removed perhaps physically yet touching and reaching out to each others as we all progress on our own set course. This is a wonderfully delightful work-which I am sure many will draw good from. Thank you, David "Our Creativity points to a Higher Creator--we couldn't have just happened, and for what ability we may possess--to God be the glory." -dlw- |

Dear Whipsnade: Oh my, I just reread this to my daughter, Emily, and we both said at the same time, "isn't that beautiful"! The picture you painted is truly a masterpiece. This is a rare and masterful work of art. Thank you so much for sharing your gift here with all of us. Ellie 02 |

Thank you deleeme,ellie,bonnie and white dove for your generous praise. This being a "debut" of sorts I'm rather overwhelmed with the idea that my thoughts put into words have been adequately conveyed so as to connect with other minds. Your'e all used to that but its pretty heady stuff for me. Thanks again Ricardo {whipsnade} |

Dear whipsnade, I went back to re-read this and discovered I failed to post a reply; I agree with all the above, "simply breathtaking". So sweet of you to add a tribute to Cassie and Bsc. Can't wait to read more from you. Bless You, Marcy |

Know thyself, we're told, and you've painted the true picture of who we all are...God's children constantly growing or changing by the experiences and people on our path of life. Your talent truly shines in your work! |
