When Rules Don’t Apply

            Restless with the present,
  it leaves her feeling tense,
               she wants the future now,
                      but nothing makes word sense.

She’s missing              an action,
                          stuck in a world of nouns,
a sentence incomplete  
             forms muddled, foreign sounds.

                         When every thought ends in
         riddles and question marks,
                decisions unmade
                       leave the future unmarked.

Not an unfamiliar feeling for most of us at
one time or another...

Like how you put this together...

(smiles) Oh Corinne, this is wonderful, sweet friend, yes, it helps making decisios always for if we are always living in uncertainty and fail to take risks, we will never savor the magic and joys of life to the fullest! (kiss on cheek) This is wonderful wisdom, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Corinne, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Thanks, Enchantress, Magnus, Noah, Logan (that's sweet but you need not worry about me, Eric, hon), Dark (I wouldn't hurt a fly), and Nan (what a lovely thing to say, thank you!)

Nan, supposed to be 100 degrees here on Wednesday, you know I'll be thinking about your ocean!

a wonderful read...
indecision and in action leaves the future still open to the possibilities...
you've given me some inspiration for today.
