She’s a gypsy in every way Always moving Never staying in any one place Long enough For one to get more than a glance Her name? I know of several One to match each of her histories Each history, suiting a purpose Each purpose serving a need Every need, needing a new name And so, she goes... She goes.. |

And so she flows, and flows Wonderful use of a metaphor, could be many, many things here Ed! I took it as a river, or ocean but to some she would be a woman I suppose, yes? [This message has been edited by Mysteria (07-31-2003 11:36 AM).] |

I know someone like that, in fact, several someones like that! I believe we all have the souls of a gypsy, but some of us have the blood...I particularly enjoyed this write, my friend! ~S~ Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart ~~S~~ |

Hey Ed -- I think I know her... How quickly the Tarantella became a mournful violin solo... Despite the cold ashes, at least the campfire held warmth if but for a little while... -MVS You CAN make a difference: |

Okay so I gave this a second thought and I think it is definitely not a river, but it could have beene yanno. So now I think it could be the spirit of a woman - do I get a second guess |
