porcelain is our life and yet we keep applying pressure taking its splendour to the distant extreme as if testing its strength in a futile character search we push and prod until it finally crashes on our own faces breaking into pieces: ruined parts that we would struggle later to put together often taking pains to make them stick together once again to appear like before but the smiles on the face of our life are deformed distorted forever like fractured truth manufactured from an original painting of lies (maybe?)

 (big hugggssssss) Oh Sudhir, I too know just how you feel, in the beginning when God made the world everything was perfect under the serpent was condemned, and every day when we destroy nature and keep building our armies and technology, we claim we are trying to make the world a better place but it always seems to multiply new problems and tears! (sad sigh) If only we could just stop trying to perfect porcelain, my tears go out to the world, this has to be addressed and you have my most gracious vote, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sudhir, thank you for sharing! (To make this a topic for Reflections to be voted on, just click the Edit button on the toolbar (the third icon to the right), check-mark the box that says you want this to be a submission, then Edit!  )May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." Shakira [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (02-22-2003 03:14 PM).] |

Sudhir, This is a treat. The broken pieces of porcelain/life metaphor is particularly poignant. Very much enjoyed. *s When you think you have heard it all, |

Your poem's displayed very nicely here and I love the thing that you do with each line, It's way cool!! The analogy that you make between porcelain and our lives is very profound... This is very true even though we do have a hard time (at least I do) admitting this as fact I believe.... Life is very very fragile. Good message and presented nicely too. -Bob |

Fragile by nature, you describe the precarious balance of who we seem to be versus who we really are. Porcelain is very appropriate example I think. Very well done my friend. I enjoyed reading. |
