Hail or Fail |

Hail or Fail What kind of cist can hold the soul? Its mist and its future goal What kind of dove, what kind of glove Can hold the essence of a love? I ask because I’m swept away Each minute of each living day Hedged within arranging rhyme And pledged the edge of changing time I live in life’s fraternity. And question its eternity. I cannot see beyond the dawn. Nor behind the door I was born. And now I’ve reached the stage of pox. The paradox of alters rocks. In the middle of a bend And cannot see the start or end. I can only sail to sight the whale But never know its hail or fail. |

(sigh) In the stage of pox, it can really be both I imagine, hail during the rainy season and fail during the dry season! (big hugggssssss) This is wonderful, sweet friend, well-done, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
