Focal Point How many is an arm there’s two can eclipse the center place that’s you the warm from open door is one shining through the thin just skin touching gold of me and tracing lines and saying sun is in its rhyme And yet on the other side the cool from the window and other arm’s not fooled the north wind taps and pales its hold brings bruise to focus with turn to rose I feel the place of battle between kin first warm then cold I’m cut in half again my sides are split and I’m between the two to count this way I am a fool but I feel this keenly change half way and from the center I can’t help but say for reason because I just write this way |

Wow! You two should get together more often for duets. *GRINNNNNNNNNN* There is Taoism in the image of the value of the space formed by two arms. I loved it; thank you for sharing. |

Is that the trick? To have the dueling brains pen side by side? You don't give up your secrets lightly, but I understand the take of them... |

Well....you said this one was silly, and you were right! But even your silly has substance and beauty. Nicely done! ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

Obviously Dear Martie, you don't need any assistance from the rest of us...Your brain obviously handles multiple and simultaneous tasks quite well!! |
