Lately I ride close to the ground with a sorely tired spirit and a body almost used up The view from down here is harsh feet walking over me are large and standing feels impossible Low down, I gaze up briefly a misted dream passes overhead and once more, my heavy heart rises. |

Whew! I thought I was going to have to come over there and prop you up! But you got the heavy heart off the ground with this clever poem from dark to light! A misted dream might be the saviour of all of us some day. |

Though, I wish the subject was a happier one for you, this is one of the best poems I've read from you. Very good! Forgetting all I'm lacking |

Ya got down there pretty low, Sandra I believe I've gotten me trousers dirty whilst accompanying you. Glad you allowed me back up. ~wranx "Writing is a perfectly natural thing to do...provided it's done in private and you wash your hands afterward"....Heinlein. |

 (big hugggssssssss) Oh Sandra, keep your chin up, sweet friend, let your heart rise and believe that you will fly and find all your heart desires! (kiss on cheek) This is wonderful, sweet friend, our thoughts are with you, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sandra, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

This is beautiful, as always. Even when you express your pain or sorrow, it is always done so eloquently. I hope your heart is lifted soon. Beth What is past is prologue; |

Sometimes I feel as low as a snake's belly in a wagon rut, but as long as you keep getting up, then there is always hope. I know that your endurance and your persistance will pay off in the end. Hang in there. Very cool write to show your strength. |

One of the most precious gifts of your writing is the "real" of it. You face the world as it is and I see you have wings. All blessings. ThisDiamond |

Oh, lil sis, this is so poignant in it's despair.......beautifully sad, somehow, but makes one realize that there are times when we all must be low, times when we must rest and take a break from flight. But you will spread your wings again!! Open the door and let your adventure begin!!! |

Be encouraged by the fact that you don't have to prove you're still you. People here love you for many reasons each in their own way. |

Sandra, rise up and don't let the world beat you down, or how will we be able to look into the depth of those wonderful eyes. Big *hugs* my friend! |
