Thief of Happenstance So swift the movement of grace in dance of air is caught within the gentle hold of web laced to the corner of the house It called me from a quick glance that stopped half way to the mailbox delighted a drift to rescue a thief of happenstance Frangible ovule of flight to drift on current I blew a breeze not reckoned more than breath with lips to kiss the flight of fairy across the lawn away [This message has been edited by Martie (09-06-2002 06:30 PM).] |

Frangible ovule of flight to drift on current I blew with breeze not reckoned more then breath with lips like buds to kiss the flight of fairy across the lawn away I have to agree with the others, this is truely breathtaking. Battle not with monsters lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you. - Friedrich W. Nietzsche |
