Naught Presumed comfort can disappear rapidly ~ or over time ~ as dependability in the moment is vanquished to a gray existence which comes so very slowly akin to macular degeneration of the soul she wonders what kind of surgical procedure would bring back the zeal and zest that which was once thought as best or was it only what their minds made of it oh to get back the simplest of pleasures when touch was treasured when comfort was found in the smile when a day could pass in light when nothing was taken for granted but the electric is gone words are sodden ~ regret most plentiful ~ 'tho smiles are given publicly in light just not during night when it would be best how did this come to pass? he said thoughts aloud she kept thoughts quietly proud and kept his words before her and noted shorter apologies but longer analogies of all things gone wrong wondering when naught became presumed 01.07.01 [Just saw the movie CastAway...which led to these thoughts....] Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

This speaks to me, and I love it. Can I be your willful breeze, Come to touch, Your heart to ease? |
