Sitting by the river alone in quiet reverie Watching unfocussed, the Sun strike the water, Jasper and dancing Emerald in the trees Streams’ unintelligible whispers and the sighing of the bower slip away under the gate of my awareness While I watch a Raven dancing worrying a mussel shell in impatient pecking circles His feathered back as darkly iridescent as Mickies’ eyes when she would give me that look The one that said…..”Now!” "You shouldn't be surprised at what happens next" [This message has been edited by wranx (07-24-2003 11:30 PM).] |

A great write about a great totem. You captured the paradox of the raven's stoic impatience. Thank you for sharing it. |

All of that? and sexy too. "NOW..." grin. Hugs, m'yeti. You continue to surpass yourself and that is saying something.  |

Ed...Now never sounds this pretty when I say it...hmmm, or maybe it does. Loved the imagery, and the closing knocked my socks off. |

Stunning imagery... with the perfect ending. *S* And on a less serious note... I just hope I don't caw when I say now. *bratty grin* I liked this very much, wranx! *S* |
