~*~ Was it you or myself or a desire of the heart to hold on or let go of. So many summer days ago your arms were a safe harbor that drew me in. Sliding across the glide and still the water runs blue. Filled by the pouring out rushing the tide to hide behind keeping one step ahead of the day. Soundless echo's lie weeping deep bellows float to the top unsuspecting, what doesn't come clear. Enduring the endless churning in search of a gulf stream to let my guard down. Where sails flap in the winter wind rocked to sleep over the ocean making my peace to leave you. As other ships pass in the night there is little comfort or solace as the sun moves higher in the sky. The day breaks, unrelenting as the current pulls the urge to satisfy. Taking me back to the pleasure of you that comes into view. ~In my dreams~ ~*~ |

"Taking me back to the pleasure of you that comes into view. ~In my dreams~" Really liked the ending -- and do understand the yearning. Happy New Year, BluesS! [This message has been edited by iliana (12-28-2003 07:45 PM).] |

A wonderful dream to have....and I'm glad you shared it here. The best kind of dream is one that comes true before you have it. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Well the truth is, I am learning what I should have learned a long time ago. That going with the flow makes for the smoothest sailing. It just took me a while to get with it! Thank you all for reading and for leaving your nice replies. I appreciate them and you so very much. |

The wind will blow in a direction all it's own, and if I'm lucky I will catch it and if not, I will let it go. It's really not that complicated after all! Thank you Helen....my friend~ |

I hope you are around tonight...your time...or even mine... to wish a Happy New Year to. I am still in self-isolation here...and am not even sure I would want or let company in, in my condition, although I am improving slightly. hugs and love, Lori..and all the best to you. Me |

Dreams are for one, but memories are for two. Unless the dream is a memory, either of the past or as I've been blessed with once, the future. |
