lines that don't connect the dots. There are winds that feed the water. There are visions in ink blot. aspersions cast by luck of moon. Scratches in these velvet days-- that sound a hollow-ringed spittoon. fluid, through a traipse of glass mesmerizing in journey-- ruins-- through a glance of past. insistant in its urge to run-- the scratches in a velvet pile show colors in the pass of sun. that boast of being worn... As if they told a war story. As if they screamed of being born. [This message has been edited by serenity blaze (03-12-2003 12:10 AM).] |

(sigh) Velvet is no ordinary texture, it is filled with so many more scratches than meets the eye, waves and wrinkles that only pacience and focus can marvel, and between the lines there may be even more scratches yet! (big hugggssssss) I love this, sweet friend, I am glad you re-posted this so I can get my vote back in, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karen, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Karen, I didn't mean to wait this long to vote! I like this for sure... At my age a little sign of wear is a good thing. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Sometimes a wallflower learns to dance and never leaves the floor. I count a little over two and a half years since I watched you take the floor and you are still dancing strong. Wonderful piece and plenty of food to feed the mind in this one. |

Excellent. definately deserving of Reflections I feel. Sometimes we have to follow a stronger voice, even if it's silent. [This message has been edited by Lost Dreamer (04-06-2003 11:09 AM).] |

If I was elloquent enough I would have said what Mark did, so I will just go "ditto", and tell you this is a must in that book. You sure squeeze a word for all its worth you know that? Don't be too hard on yourself - even Einstein had trouble tying his shoelaces. |
