Infraction

Infractions are a wave of brook
An apple pie that does not cook
The mind can make heaven of hell
It’s all in the sipping of the well

Dream you of a butterfly
Walk a rainbow in the sky
Listen to the music play
Pick the flowers of the day.

Rest a moment in the green
See the world of dew in sheen
Make the mist a pillows slip
Catch the echoes of its drip

Let yourself become as one
Until the magic thought is done
Warm your heart in condescend
Let your spirit rest and mend

Open up your nettle shell and
Hear the ringing of the bell.

I do believe your infractions are causing refractions upon the colored prisms of life, Sy.  This is a for so very many reasons, my friend...

I always hear bells -a- ringing and
chimes -a- chinging when I read you Sy-guy.

just came home for lunch...headed back out
Me and Randy are running errands,
you want us to bring you anything from Dragons R US? lol  

*ww*




I am sure of my reasons, embracing the seasons,
and the sacred simplicity of you at my side.

I think you should spell it like this  
Through your words your readers do just that, they explain life in a more visible way, much, much better than  plain spoken words...like right here...

"Open up your nettle shell and
Hear the ringing of the bell."

Nettle is like the guard we wrap around us sometimes, it stings anyone who tries to make us happy...but if we "open up" that wrapper we can be happy....and hear the bell ring...at least this is how the message appeares to me.
