When your mind refuses to answer < !signature-->and longs for an alternative track because once you have an answer you know there's no going back I've reached that impasse the thought goes round and round don't want to take another step do I go up or down? My eyes plead in silence my mouth stays firmly shut cause once the words are out there's no maybe, if or but I thought I'd toss a coin another way to choose can only be - head or tails but will I win or lose So I sit in silence on the edge of a cliff taut like a puppet unbending and stiff... Memories give you the power to collect roses in the winter... [This message has been edited by RainbowGirl (edited 01-31-2000).] |

Sitting next to you on the cliff....giving you a big hug.....telling you a dirty joke ...walking away from the cliff together to find the end of a rainbow and see if we can possibly find that pot of gold. Darn, a leprechaun just walked away with it ! Have to find ourselves another rainbow ! Hmm, I walking right beside one and she sure is made of gold. HUGS. |

Some decisions are tougher than others...if there is anyway I might be able to help, let me know, okay? Sometimes when someone is on the 'outside' of a problem, they can see it differently. Wonderful poem, of course! HUGS Denise |

Munda: Bless you..I don't know if I dare say what the decision process was about...ROFL HUSG Denise: Thank you sweetheart, but it was about my dithering as to whether to post something or not..ROFL...and my other personality got the better of me...so I fell off the cliff and posted..

*G* Cindy ! Now you tell me ! And I thought it was something very important as "what are we having for supper tonight ? Peas or carrotes !" Keep in mind though Cindy, I mean what I say and say what I mean. HUGS |

Rainbow Girl- I can just hear you trying to convince 'other personality' not to do something. This is just great. I like that 'edge of the cliff' image .. been there ! Like you ... closed my eyes and leaped ! ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Munda: I think I opted for the carrot...oooops..*g* and thank you.. Sweet dreams.. HUSG Marge: Well, WH (Wanton Hussy)is a real rascal and likes to have her own way and in case you wonder about the name, now and then this Rainbow gets a delicious thought and a few tease me about it,so if you ever see WH being mentioned, you now know why..*g*..but I'm quite shy really, hence the dual personality.. It's good to free fall of cliffs though, gives a different perspective on life.. HUSG Memories give you the power to collect roses in the winter... |
