When pressures overwhelm me- In the darkness of the night... No friends to share my burdens- My escape is when I write... I write of things that I have seen, And places I have been... And days that I still clung to dreams... But that was "way back when..." I write of how things used to be, And how they never were... My mind takes flights of fancy.. To where miracles occur... So if you'd trace the morning mist- The "Flying Dutchman's" wake... Then link your wandering mind to mine... A journey we will take. |

indeed. . . the journey begins with a thought. . . well done. . . ----------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |

Then write into the quiet night where trusting, among your wearing bones friendly spirits will come alight and ride across your wandering poems |

I write of how things used to be, And how they never were... My mind takes flights of fancy.. To where miracles occur... Dear Gunslinger - and you do this so well!! Enjoyed, Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |
