Overbound and Undertied Yesterday edged me in courtroom antics, jumping hurdles, the theme for the day. Synchronized timing kept my heart beating, my breath rushed and my demeanor bearing seriousness. Nonstop persistence toughened the day's hold and time was not mine to grasp but was theirs to bind, tie and package for the future's tomorrows. "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

thanks Janet...I have this friend of my husband's ( actually my friend now) who has brain cancer and has just had his second brain operation in 5 months which hopefully is going to work this time. They placed radiation seeds into his brain. But before all this happened he was driving while intoxicated and in PA it is a felony. So I spent yesterday in court with him since he can't drive, and went through a whole day's processing. I don't think I would ever wish to go through it myself...the fines are huge and in order to drive again and to not go to jail they have to go to drug and alcohol treatment classes. It was an 9 hr, day for me yesterday, with future days in wait. So that is the meaning behind the poem *s. I can't always be inspired by "love"  M |

Wonderful title Maureen and time was not mine to grasp but was theirs to bind, tie and package Nice~ It's not easy when the situation is out of our hands. I like how you take a day in your life and turn it into poetry. Can't always write about love. Funny lady..... Hugs you~ |

Hi Lori, sorry I didn't make it online last night..those west coast/east coast differences in time make it hard for me right now. p.s. I dreamed those title words just upon waking and couldn't get them off my mind. hugsss M [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (04-23-2003 12:13 PM).] |

I tried to reply to this earlier, but our server was eating pages for breakfast I guess...sigh... from conception to title to finish this is wonderful.....wish every judge, jury and court employee could read....court is never a pleasant experience.....and you are right, they have all the ropes |
