Cinema Of Time
~*Marge Tindal*~


The wisp, the feeling,
the warmth of something,
someone ...
and then she manifests~

Residual spirit in gentle haunt~

The Lady,
it's all I've ever known her by
comes and sits with me
Comforts in silence
holding my tears in gentle gather~

Shrouded in Victorian lace
so transparently woven
as if to give her an aura
that I could reach out and touch

I do not
for fear she will deliquesce~

Oh, lest you think not ...
she is real ...

Spirited from a time so very long ago
as to cause me to think
that her soul is endless ...

The Lady sits countenance with me
in the quietude of the night
When the osmosis is complete
she wisps through the wall
as though she ... and it, were not there~

She will return when she feels I have need ...
That time will come again ... and so will she
I wait~

~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~

Marge

You are both lucky to have found this connections...I'm sure she gathers strength from your spirit, as you do from hers.

For some reason "Angel" by Sarah Mclahlan (sorry for misspelling) comes to mind..very spellbinding..you have no idea how much this has sent shivers up & down my spine in a good way!

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

You have created again and I am with goosebumps and tears.

This is breathtaking and how fortunate you are to have her to collect and hold your tears and nourish your spirit.

Hugs, Marti

Marge:  Lovely!  I sometimes feel a "presence" but it never manifests itself.
What a special moment for you!

Tingles ran up and down my spine as I read your eloquently expressed words---and the ethereal picture just added to the experience.

I too, have similar experiences. At first, the visits frightened me---but now I find comfort in them, for I realize that I am never really alone.

My goodness, I cannot believe that I never returned to this one to give proper thanks~

I am graciously thankful for each of you~

She still tends my quiet need~
