I've climbed the highest mountain and stood in the meadowmist while it rained down on me camouflaging the clearing, mistaking reality. A phase of lavender fields swaying in the wind believing I could, for a minute. I have drifted over a pond floating like a water lily and felt you in the swirling beside me. Your hair fanning out like an underwater flame catching my breath laid down on the edge of my dreams. Training my eyes to the light seeing how far I had come to the top of rise and how far down I might fall. But the view that I'm seeing from the top of the clouds all powdered blue in the chill Thrills me~ |

What a finish here my dear! The last line, so perfectly completed the momentary trembles when we look down... Wonderful. TD |

"Your hair fanning out like an underwater flame" ~ I swear, I will never be able to look at hair fanning out in water like that without thinking of this line. ![]() You have such a beautiful and unique way of seeing things--and feeling them! ![]() Linda |

Susan~ Thank you. It does feel that way, cool and cleansing when one learns to breathe easier. (with a little help from my friend) Lauren~ I'm glad you felt the softness as it was meant to be. After all that's what clouds are for!! (to cushion the blow) ![]() Hugs back at you~ |

Lori, I knew your fear of falling would never hold you back. Another excellent write. I always look forward to your words... ![]() If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

"I have drifted over a pond floating like a water lily and felt you in the swirling beside me. Your hair fanning out like an underwater flame catching my breath laid down on the edge of my dreams." The edge of a dream...have walked it myself. You do have a way with images Bluesy. "Underwater flame"...love that! ![]() |
