Before there was language antiquated herbivores roamed we fed them greenery waiting for the Earth to cool to form itself Somewhere inside of me resides this memory as a child, forgotten but not lost completely Upon my hand, the scent right palm speaking of underbrush and silt Exactly how it smells after a rainfall . . . My soul begs to love you as does your own in return The fireside smoke spirals calling us home the place of our birth once again [This message has been edited by littlewing (09-29-2003 12:42 AM).] |

Sue, it doesn’t surprise me that you are able to reach so far down, and connect with Mother Earth, on this level! What a meaningful and significant quality that is! This was very spiritually touching! Way to go Sue! Richy |

This is a beautifully fitted window that allows a glimpse of an entire universe. Primeval, lush, gentle and savage, all at the same time. Stunning and simple, and simply eternal. Thanks for sharing this. |

Sue, I don't blabber. Blather, perhaps, but not blabber. I only WISH I could get some good sleep. Came back for a second read. SEE...? |

In the time before language before we leaned on this too inadequate idea of grunting given meaning There was a man and a woman Who knew what the eyes spoke of And could divine truth from a touch Most excellent, M'Love! ~A man |
