"You have ways . . ." he said to me . . . secretly smiling my sighs through eyes inhuman gasping my grasp like molten steel embedded shards in my skin of touch and feel my palm outstretched aligned The Hunter knows a marksman's bow keen eye and sight the slightest of sound pull back of string in eye of scope crosshairs thinned the prey lies in wait as the arrow takes flight |

 (smiles) I've always loved Pegasus, and Orion is the ideal hunter there is, only hunting for that love in the vast universe! (big hugggsssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, 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 |

I recall a young woman lying at the foot of the bed, writing poetry. Writing this particular poetry, in fact. I miss you already M'love.  "In looking Northward, I see a light" |

Gee, I didn't have my glasses on and at first...I thought the title was "Onion"... Sheesh... Sue, you have written another masterful post. One can take this in different ways and that is good... Yes, Orion...The Hunter.. looking for his prey...waiting to strike with the arrow...as she falls for him. All about love and be loved as Nancy surmized... Very well done. |

I cannot tell you how many times I have seen a star shoot across the constellation of Orion while I am gazing at it!  This is a wondrous write, Dear Sue!  To the stars and beyond!  Linda |

ROTFL at Magnus reply.  Here's one I wrote long ago, Forum 16: When Orion's Belt Tightens When the mystic nightengale chants his sweet refrain, and Orion's belt tightens its grip on the human heart, will we be ready to open up and release our love in unity, to shower the whole Earth with peace and harmony, and cleanse our sullied hearts and minds of hatred and injustice? Or will we sit smugly on our false tarnished thrones and let the golden moment of opportunity pass us by, as if we were not part of the problem? As if we could not feel or know the answer when we hear all the suffering souls crying out Why? A friend once told me "We will never see Peace on Earth until Hell freezes over" Well, it is freezing out now, and I have seen Hell on Earth. When will I see Peace? ************************************ Love will find a way to bring Peace. You and Ed are helping us walk that pathway.

Hmmm, the two women that know me best conspire to meet. (Wonder how Orion would handle this?) Had to come back to this Susie...I'm always amazed at how you see things, Smmoches Sweetheart! "In looking Northward, I see a light" |
