Catching Stars |

Draped in paradoxal hues, windowed eyes catch stars that halo rising moons, then vanish into morning views, watch the towering corn climb the fenceless sky; it's the growing season !!! the trees are full of antipation, making shadow pictures spreading their foliage across concrete lawns, they slumber deep within an august daydream, yet intuitively knit shawls as autumn winks, weaving tightly togther, interlocking roots beneath earth's cover, singing with summer, bracing for winter, what faith they have !!! as they lean upon eachoter's shoulders, love is without definition, speculation and folly, i've tripped upon my own misreadings of what appeared to be clearly written signs, beaten up a bit, i look towards the stonefaced sky still pulling up threads of pollyanna visions, stiching together faces of dreamlovers that have yet to come; is there truly any alternative?

"...love is without definition, speculation and folly, i've tripped upon my own misreadings of what appeared to be clearly written signs..." What wonder seeds your words, when you write of the nature of a woman's heart Hugs, TD |

Michele -- I think your pollyanna vision is superb! There is wisdom in your words way beyond the norm and yet that sense of awe and wonder that comes with the innocence of a child -- a very beautiful blend, and a treasured one. Brilliant writing in my book. ......jo |

I do so love reading your work and lingering amongst your words. Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

"i've tripped upon my own misreadings of what appeared to be clearly written signs," ~ Oh, yes! I too have tripped over my "pollyanna" visions, and yet, there be no "alternative" for me. Many clever lines! ~ as per usual with your writing! Happy holiday hugs, Linda |

I kept walking past the title...saying to myself that this should be good....I walked past it again....saying that I really do need to read this, that I would see something magical... My instincts were right...I was not disappointed... |

Draped in paradoxal hues, windowed eyes catch stars that halo rising moons, then vanish into morning views, ~*~ Methinks you caught more than a star or two... enjoyed this very much, Michele... |
