Hardened as shell of egg, he is likened To the crust of earth perhaps fifty miles deep, perhaps Where emotions choose not to seep. Within the inner core, the inner yolk, Burns not golden,hotter red, molten lava While rock returns to burning streams Churning olden dreams, fault line seams. If Earth were an apple, thereād be such a core, With no burning metal or deadly Vesuvius lava, But within nurtures tightly woven clutch, Would rest star of apple seed desired much.

muted, I hope the faultline feeling diminshes soon, muted. Being on the edge is not a pleasant feeling. iliana, This could describe many. Thanks for your response. Have a good day, Jo. (I've used these hands-on analogies to teach my own children about the composition of the Earth... It seems people, in some way, must be constructed similarly.) Hope, Thank you for reading and responding to this. Yes, I've come out of many of my "shells" but have many more to go... Sadie [This message has been edited by Sadelite (04-13-2004 04:52 AM).] |
