the walls curve into focus age old cracks spiral to a halt it is here where the brides stretch their ghostly fingers it is here where the baboon shivers with dreams tossing them out toward mnemonic sea only to have them bounce back up into her two-faced face yet she is colourful daisy’s spring from her eyes still and her lips move soundlessly into the dankness of shells she is sea-bitten she stands akimbo by the crippled shutters of the lighthouse chin-wagging the walls to the ground… this is where the cicadas reach her where the puissant waves repeatedly fold into her arms uninterrupted Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

Maree....The color of this is somber, yet I also feel you poking fun at yourself...the fresh imagery is just so amazing and it leaves me feeling stunned. That's a good thing. So well done, my friend! Hugs! |

I am generally not one who enjoys free verse, but good writing overcomes one's biases. Well written, enjoyed. |

Hi Chumnas! (just a nick name my son Daniel and I have going at the moment )thank you all so very much for dropping by and for reading my lil lighthouse series. I appreciate all your lovely replies, comment and your compliments. I've actually enjoyed writing them very much and hope to have more...it will be interesting even for me to see where I go with them. Again, thank you all so very much Maree. Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

It’s true Maree, you are gifted. This is so superb. It’s sad that it couldn’t go on forever... Can hardly wait for the next scene to unfold. Now I gotta go back and read the first two! So wonderful... as is your picture. Very becoming. Take Care, Richy |
