Shadow’s Corner [Konrad’s Memories] In the chiming times, when light shows there In tender Shadow’s corner, Where you dwell, Believing you there, smiling, Waving, then sliding slowly, fading Into vague again. How often you come, to stroke my lines, Like moonlight and Texas breezes, that switch clouds high, Bringing up salty moisture Onto driest soul-creases. Mind's eye softly sounds tunes you remember, Breathing hums of loving, stirred ~ I miss you so. Young, old, in-between, What does age matter When time is chiming? You reside here, tapping gently, Glazing grazing eyes that light upon all This and that of what once Touched you. You share the dim corner with others, Who glide and slide, in And out But I know when it is, When you hold me a little longer, some days, When the trembling flutter Revisits a stumbling stutter to weary thoughts, And I trip, slipping back In a loss I still don’t possess… I give it all up again, To watch you gambol In Shadow’s corner. Karilea - if I whisper, will you listen? Keeping in mind, I must stand close... |

In the shadows lies the substance sustenance of life while iron-clad impoverished minds simply walk by unseeing unknowing unappreciating undone strolling through UNlife How much we miss for the simple lack of listening, looking, but most of all- Believing For nothing will exist without belief say sad dreamer isn't it a pity he won't come back to Earth Sad misbeliever afraid to color outside the lines just to see what might appear "High on the Mountain, where the Sun stil Shines, and the water runs a little lazy." |

Thank you Karilea.. for sharing Konrad's memories with us. It is always a pleasure... always. M Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

Sunshine You are some piece of brilliance Dave I time I sought you Where you dwell I came for you Disbeliving I came for you Mars was only mushroom Paris on your bottom Chalk still there For all to see Mind's eye softly sounds tunes you remember, Breathing hums of loving, stirred ~ I miss you so. Young, old, in-between, What does age matter When time is chiming? You reside here, tapping gently, Glazing grazing eyes that light upon all This and that of what once Touched you. You share the dim corner with others, Who glide and slide, in And out But I know when it is, When you hold me a little longer, some days, When the trembling flutter Revisits a stumbling stutter to weary thoughts, And I trip, slipping back In a loss I still don’t possess… I give it all up again, To watch you gambol In Shadow’s corner. |
