I tell it so, and so, and so,
each to all a different line
a present wrapped and sealed
from me to you my mind

Like dough I knead, stretch, flatten
and leave in you to rise
attention to the detail
you never thought to find.

I feel you moving like a snail
hidden in a shell you sleep
and dream perhaps of other lives
my mind can’t ever reach.

I tell it so, and so, and so,
in there the truth doth lie
but seek in garbage old, discarded,
and I am doomed to die.

I call again my sons to love
my hands too weak and old
and leave within the spirit world
my faith in younger souls.

I tell it so, and so, and so,
and again this time more so!

I always appreciate the way you look in between and all around in layers some lost some found. If that makes any sense to you...I have a feeling that it will. Hugs!

Yes, Martie, life is about layers and as we peel each one away, we either laugh or cry or sometimes wish to die but, hey, it's Sunday night when ghouls and goblins walk and talk the talk of other lands until we understand. But, what the hell, let's just get through what's on offer here as best we can.

(big hugggsssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, life peels away like an onion, only some layers taste so much more sweeter and we cry of joy and not just because of the aroma! (sigh) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Helen, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
