Upon the stilness of glass
unburden, unwilled
stone's shadows
quietly pass
above the water
silled

Hauling through the empty air
a moment to live
under such
gravity's stare
what is there
to give

Braving the faces of Fate
losing momentum
the reaction
can not wait
as the stone
skips from

Upon the stillness
of glass
stone's shadows
never last

create an addiction .... share a smile!!

Cold hands means a warm heart

I lean against the wind pretend I am weightless and in this moment I am happy

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Craig, this is so very emotionally powerful, sweet friend, the vision of a rock crashing the ice also felt sad to me like a lost memory! (sigh) This is excellent, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Craig, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Nice work, Craig. Looks like our combo poem has disappeared

This has great imagery.
