Maybe once we could fold into each other and find another place beyond what we are, where there would be no measure only melting. I am one thought in time. The sea does not feel my toes dangling, the sun moves always into another daybreak, the turning world holds me to her for reasons of her own. That precious footprint cannot sustain itself, consumed by minutes it is gone. Maybe once we could find another way of knowing, glimpse beyond one separate thought to that other place where there would be not measure only melting. |

I love this! Exquisite feelings. I love the line about "folding into each other", and also especially enoy the lines - "That precious footprint cannot sustain itself, consumed by minutes it is gone". Oh, man, what those words speak to me! My net's been out for most of three weeks now. Now I'm hunting up what I've been missing, before it goes out again. I might have thirty seconds!!! |

I like the image of the footprint disappearing..and how that relates to the love mentioned in the poem "Love is the only drug you can take that will convince you each time that you've never had it before." ~author unknown~ |
