march l8, 2004

the moment
in the window box

i stare with blank face
washed in a sky of rain,

i wonder how
i came to be
sitting here
at this time,

it is march,
it is way too cold,
it is a winter of longing,

who is this shadow that sits here?
when i have slipped off
no longer feeling sewn to this world i wear,

the ground is a pond of splashing sparrows
rung by rainbows,

the colors blend before me,

surrounded in circles,
they play like little ones
unaffected by the shroud
of divinity they wear,
as i adorn them with halos,

simply and tenderly
the moment paints before me,

i jump in among them,
my reflection stares back
at me thru the slice
of the window,

i am the rainbow,

the rainbow is me,

there is no need to think anymore.

Liked that verse most of all.

I detect a bit of melancholy here,
so like a rainbow that fades too soon.

Love ya girlielocks~

I get the distinct impression that calling you a child "Ink" would be an understatement

Splashing in your wellies, jumping in puddles, looking for those pots of gold at the end of the rainbow years away

Loved your words as usual
