~ Top o' the Morning ~  My vision soars through crystal skies bourn high in astral flight Drifting free on shifting breeze banking left ... then banking right ~ A reclusive need for solitude spreads wings within my head and rises up through phobic mists atop the pall ... 'tis stress I dread ~ A rising sun smiles upon my face triggers ... coronary delight above the clouds of Heaven's step helping ... rectify my plight ~ My leaden shroud is lifted high six angels share its' weight " Top o' the morning " I heard them say as they passed through Heaven's gate ~ " We'll have your shroud all cleaned and pressed we'll embroider on its' nape A morning dove shall bring it back wear it well ... it's Heaven's cape " ~ Descending home ... can't help but see the world's a brighter place A pristine air pervades the skies as tension seems erased ~ Subconscious thought soon nullified Fresh air ... inflates the hollow I yawn and stretch as nature's song sings through my open window ~ My dream serene starts fading fast my thoughts to reality ... focus while reaching out to close the pane a dove slips through ... unnoticed ... ~~~ |

"Descending home ... can't help but see the world's a brighter place A pristine air pervades the skies as tension seems erased" And a cheery goo'day to you too! Thanks Rex. But you almost had me looking at the calendar, wondering if March had arrived, and if I am a Rip Van Winkler case. |

Rex - Oh, aye, this brings out a wee bit o' Irish in me ye know. Lovely. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |
