Weaving words from unspoken seams
Addicts drinking in sober streams
Wishful thinking and broken dreams
Life is and isn't what it seems.

Glad eyes blinking, tear-satire schemes
Star-lit twinkling mocking moonbeams
Glass shards slinking into skin-creams
Life is and isn't what it seems.

Horror sprinkling our sweetest themes
Odors stinking, perfumed regimes
Laughter tinkling at hell-fire screams
Life is and isn't what it seems.

Ghost-rain plinking desert extremes
Lover's winking unfaithful gleams
Worn skin wrinkling, pray it redeems
Life is and isn't what it seems.

Without inkling, prideful supremes
Upward shrinking, solidified steams
Lone tinkering, politic teams
Life is and isn't what it seems.

Mirage thinking in desert dreams
Life is and isn't what it seems.

Love,
Bonnie

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Bonnie, I couldn't agree with you more, sweet friend, it seems life is filled with so many things that seem contradictory but are contradicted with truth! (sigh) This is wonderfully said, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Bonnie, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
