Where are you When the crave of you can not be sated by mere thought. For I hunger endlessly in the pit of me. The growl of my cords resonating in my ears as I strain to hear the melody of our song. Where are you when storms blow upon the desert plain, as dust chokes the life of me, as empty hands grasp the hour glass, now filled....waiting. Centuries have shaded my still form. A thousand moons have set beyond the hills of remember. Yet, my memory darkens, as energies fade into the final ripple against life’s soul. Where will I be without you there, standing tall among the roses of my garden. I have watered your roots, yet petals fall endlessly... Will we survive? I fail to see for the maze eludes me...confuses me...and yet, I walk on...looking, waiting... watching for yet another ripple on life’s lake, that we might again bathe the pebbles smooth within the chilled waters as my breath is taken away....by you.

Magnus my dear friend, this is wonderful. Sighing here.  Have a Happy Turkey Day! We Canadians have already celebrated ours. Never could understand why the US of A and Canada couldn't celebrate on the same date. I mean....turkey is turkey, no matter what side of the border you're on....right? Hee hee...rambling again....I know....I know. Hugs, Chris |

beautifully written, expressed and felt by the reader, yet, fear not my friend, for the rippled End becomes great beginnings...she is there with you, in thoughts words and deeds, she is part of your most intimate and inner being. Happy Thanksgiving! |
