The spectrum of thought Swinging, ticking off track Blue, haze of Grail Sir Lancelot slays the day In your white horse saunter Yes, I will ride, but alone This paper trail of confusion Smile, It's soul depends on it As the reaper may wait Just around the corner Food for thought, Gravy Slap some on the mountain And let me slide the diet Speak to me Oh Wise One The information Operator Let me tell you a joke I need to make a stranger laugh For the rose of Camelot Has wilted, in countless petals All down around my feet Like a crazed Mad woman I hunt the thorns For the thorns stay sweet The only thing consistent As the pendulum swings The day is stolen, missing And I think I can Identify the Suspect |

Yes, wonderful, I love the words "The rose of camelot has wilted" If only it were not so true. Sandra |

"I hunt the thorns For the thorns stay sweet" a pang, not in my chest, but behind somehow... |

Dear Regina, do you seek a knight on horseback to take you from your ways, why are petals once of sweet now falling with the days? The thorns, are they your memories of which you so rely? It sounds to me, that something new is what you need to try. Worry not so much of things and more about yourself, close your book of misery and lay it on the self. It is sad to feel you sad, you must try to smile more, and what do they say (don’t worry, be happy) All the best, interesting write. Rick |

The culprit is time for those of us who dare dream even in the waking hours. Enjoyed. "Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to decieve" |

Sue: Thank you lovely one! They just come in droves sometimes. So glad you enjoyed my weirdness. Catalinamoon: Thank you! Camelot is my poised exterior. The rose is my soft side. I will write for you in compliment of your compliment! Howpeculiar: Well, what an interesting comment. I am earthly, It's my sign I can be witchy sometimes, But I consider myself to be more of a Dirt Goddess! I love gardening! Thank you for reading! Rick: Well, you are so dear! I am breaking away from that which binds me. No saddness, Just some confusion. I'm exploring the deeper elements in myself. Which is childs play, fantasy, daydreaming, and getting tough. All in a day's work! Make sense! RSWells: Absolutely! Thank you so much for reading and your wise review. Sven: You too! I appreciate you visiting! Sincerely, Regina [This message has been edited by rwood (edited 08-07-2001).] |

A meal for the mind, Regina! The first two sentences grabbed me tightly and kept me thinking... -MVS "When you tell the Truth, you never have to remember what you just said." |
