Feminine Side Now that the precipitation has moved away the sky seems vacant to the horizon of my mind and beyond with a new light focused to this personal metamorphosis from the lackluster of a "just being" existence to the beautiful insignia of my own rainbow.. a promise to myself made long ago in that daydream of her- the heroine child…Nancy my escape from life so that I could live……….. in me. Robert if you can dream; you can fly...if you are flying; you are dreaming. |

It can be such a struggle to live within ourselves. Quite intriguing, Robert...as is always true of your work. ~ Claire |

You have expressed this so eloquently for me, Mr. RobertB! An 'ooh' and an 'ouch' from me, serenity! Much thanks. |

I think we all have "other" sides. We must take time to explore them. (not that I am a cross dresser mind you!!!!!!!) I asked one of my friends if he had a feminine side and he acted like I was enquiring if he had Bubonic plague! Sorry for the "ouch" serenity! Robert |

We all have those "other sides" Robert. . . heck, I must have at least 10 or so!! LOL But this is indeed an excellent poem. . .if we all explored the "other side" of ourselves, would we all be just a little saner? ---------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |
