Negative Reality When mentor winds caress my face I am lost in a gentle place. A place of awe a place of store A place of phantoms living core A place that opens up a path A place that soothes me like a bath A place that baths my angers reap Placing hazards soft asleep It is a gentle part of me A negative reality A place of seem, a place of dream A place of daffodils that gleam Though lilies overtake the field I make some daffodils still yield. And thought they are of misty art Yet still they are in fact a part. And long as life sweeps through a vein So long shall dreams in me remain.

Though lilies overtake the field I make some daffodils still yield Seymour - though I have been warned not to type due to tendonitis in my left arm, I just had to tell you how lovely this morning offering is. Thankyou for this softness. hugs, Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

And with your words, opens a door For aching souls and hearts so sore To find relief within your world... Seymour, this work's another pearl! Your negative reality Describes a place I'd like to be. *S* |

Sy "It is a gentle part of me A negative reality A place of seem, a place of dream A place of daffodils that gleam" My flower and soil may differ but in my place I feel the same |

Sey, I thoroughly enjoyed the internal rhyming scheme of this, as well as the picture of living on the other side of the fence of reality: where dreams come alive, and the spirit can delve into fantasy. Jeff |
