Times Three Reminded, times three today, by way of corresponding lines of lives who have touched me true and this, yes this, would share with you of a witty play which in rushing forth with courses that rut life in course, of endings coming far too soon to those living light and pleasure, to those who bring such to others around them whether by smile, or wile, or Wit or ordinary, ornery gaiety… or through poetry or writings, or filmed imaginations, whose most thoughtful ponderings akin to them, those who find wisdom in lexis and logic, and damn from each one short courses to death that tear from us time to time that we would discover more… so I call again words long gone which live for me in links to Donne and heed the sounds which hold head high Death... be not proud… And death is not, for here, now, see the loves I hold in friendships three who fight and rally in harmony and dwell not in what might be but what would cast a pall over death and fight their best until it be their choice to rest… nay, fear death? I and they, we fear thee not… for memories shall never rot, as merry is to merry who be, and face in new beginnings a kinder and gentler revelry. ~*~ Dedicated to three friends who will always be survivors for what they have laid down in their paths…. |

Beautiful Karilea. Some never realize how brave they really are. Some never realize what an impact they have on our daily lives. This write honours them. Hugs, Chris |

Indeed "Death be not proud though some have called thee so" Better Figght aginst the oncoming night Perhaps This time of light and life existing to all our knowledge, somehow between two eternities of unpredictably best or absolute nothingness, how do we take for granted a SINGLE MOMENT ALIVE- when this is both gift and heritage. Memories live only in the living, based on extraordinary understanding of life. "High on the Mountain, where the Sun stil Shines, and the water runs a little lazy." |

(big angel hugs) God Bless You, dearest friend, I believe all throughout the journey of life we inspire and give something that is indescribable yet so pure to one another and friends are unsung heroes on the outside but singing on the inside always! (smiles) Yay, I love this, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karilea, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |

Karilea, This, being one of the best I've ever read of yours, makes me think of Tennyson, because it is so much like his own perspective of life once was. Truly amazing work, my friend! The stars will shine when I am gone, |
