1,735 Miles Crossing half the homeland passage of renewed chances carriage of care-worn cargo, pictures of vast expanses. Flat of fields, rise of hills flurries warn of coming storms climbing heaven’s guardians shawl of white, trees transform. More to this journey than miles, show of diamonds in the night surreal the canvas before us cast by the lone headlight. Road closed, one mile ahead spooned, we sleep together, turning to inner embraces undaunted by the weather. Morning arrives, glacial bright silent and soft the quilting though awake, we remain of one mind, dreaming. © 2000 Corinne Bailey [This message has been edited by Corinne (edited 10-27-2000).] |

This is a gem, and a real nice read Jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil. "Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely". |

Through the cold, the harhness, the dead ends in life, just the dream of being together brightens it all. That's what i get from this. |
