Unusual

I sat a moment vis- a- vis
As if I were a refuge
Just a little out of sync
Perhaps it was the pen and ink

Eternity was on my mind
I pushed myself to peel its rind
At least to lift its weight of rock
Impossible came back the mock.

And so I looked into the sky
And asked myself that always why
And sighed a very heavy heave
Just what in truth did I believe?

And slowly I turned away
Saying I believed in day
Believed in every mornings light
And dreams that followed in the night

There’s no beyond eternals bend
It is an end within an end.

Beautiful morning write Sy!
I was worried you may not get here before the tea became cool.
'Tis okay though...still hot.
You left beautiful words this sunny morn Sy!
~Morning hugs, Nancy~

~Somewhere in my heart I'm always
dancing with you in the summer rain~

Interesting thoughts to ponder,
Of the here and the yonder!

Excellent, and so I take it...mornings are eternal?  For I myself am at my best in the sunshine. TD

I loved watching the old doctor program [Dr. Kildare? or was it Ben Casey?] that showed the chalk on the blackboard, sketching the Eternity sign...remember? No matter what your mind comes up with, Sy, we are always pleased that you find it in your heart to share your thoughts with us...

thank you!

I believe in all this you dare to share and so much more ...
for your rhyme scheme dreams taught this moth to soar.
I believe in the truth written with wisdom from this poet's core,
cadenced couplets of his heart's store carry us to beyond and before.

I believe in the treasure found at the end of rainbows bend ...
of Heaven's assured ascend, of all you wend in inspiration's intend,  


*winkiewinkie*

Darkness cannot drive out darkness ... only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate ... only love can do that.

Maybe we should change the rules - There must be a way to extend eternity, don'tcha think?..

(smiles) And if you believe there's absolutely NOTHING unusual about that! (big hugggssssssss) Without an end within another end we'd never see any motion and that is the gift of eternity, yay, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
