In the flowing quiet where an imagination waves he closes his eyes and becomes the duty of small keys a knick knack of brass opening locked windows subtly separating the tiny pieces of eternity Time, how is it you escaped Like water eating stone fragments disappeared when brides let their hair fall under the moon’s wild dance, when children whispered I lay me down to sleep Time, the wine created from the cluster of astringent sweet grapes It is as it is A December dusk gone A curve of earth lying flat as the breeze visits the ocean’s tide His hands created fancy are now tangled slivers of thorns His body once raging is a river of wasted strokes He keeps appointments in the dark and collects photographs of brilliant descents In the flowing quiet an imagination waves closing his eyes he is the duty of small keys a knick knack of brass opening locked windows subtly separating the tiny pieces of eternity [This message has been edited by A Tone of Voice (01-23-2002 06:33 PM).] |

It is as it was, A December dusk gone A curve of earth lying flat while a breeze visits the ocean’s tide The separation is inevitable and time just keeps on keeping on! Love that voice of yours. |

  (sigh) Soooooooo sad but beautiful, sweet friend, time can do such inevitable effects on us and some can be sooooo painful, but time will always offer us gifts too that are inevitable and will bring hope and light to all our hearts with eternal guarantee! (big hugggssssss) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is fabulous! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

A Tone of Voice-- This was very well done...you weave words into feeling, into a person..and it hurts a bit to read. |

ahhhhh ATOV...we are the makers of eternity, the forgers of our keys, that cannot and willnot fit any other lock, save our own I have always felt that some moments are without time...they exist existentialy, without the burdens and confines of time. They are just meant to be experience, however long it takes. *smiling* if you wrote any better, i would have to offer you a publishing contract! that is...if i HAD a publishing company..... Thank you for your friendship and your replies, ATOV (ps...i was wondering when you would get around to posting some more!) coooooool! tSR ~working on my time blender (it has a short in it)~ |
