Guardian of Broken Watches In this house of shadows, pendulums are riveted to every wall, there is a constant unsettling alarm, and dreams tick by in slow moving hands of Daliesque perpetuity. © 2002 Corinne Bailey |

Corinne, wow, this deserves a second if not third read!! Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

(smiles) Ooohhhhhh...this reminded me of that painting from Salvador Dali about time and melting clocks and that surreal dream, this is sooooooo inventive! I love it, you swing the pendulum of emotions with your beautiful words! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is fabulous! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Corrine, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Naoh Eaton |
