Questioning the Inanimate It is just a log For holding the gate open I see its spirit On the patio Like a watching dog at rest It casts a shadow Seen from the corner Where my eye finds slanted time It is something else |

Where my eye finds slanted time Ah... so that's how you see! *S* And your words let us see, too... *S* I look at things differently because of you. *S* Beautiful work!! |

When we look from slanted eye our sight takes on some visions Our mind plays tricks with what we see It cannot make decisions. Nice job. Ken Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

Seen from the corner Where my eye finds slanted time It is something else Martie, I wish that I could write what I see from "the eye of slanted time" the way that you write.  Hugs, Ethel |

yes Martie it is indeed something, it may be just a log to hold the gate open, but it is doing what it was put there to do eh? Great imagery here...as always you please  M xx The clouds never expect it when it rains, but the sea, changes colour, but the sea, does not change. |

There is spirit in everything that lives or has life...for those with the inner eye to see it. You've told me you don't have it, but I know you do. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
