A Conversation with Yesterday She looked familiar, I thought, as we spoke of likenesses that bound us in a conversation of passion, perhaps more fittingly, compulsion, of promise to bring truths to page by pen. Though I had always relied upon my hand to speak my mind, I now found no words to describe her light which shown divinely upon truths I thought were buried long ago with master artisans of the word. I have traveled this Earth many more years than she but her promise was closer at hand. Adolescent innocence could not claim naiveté for in her I read the unconditional wisdom of prophets In youth, it seems, Lesser to be understood than the reader to understand. It was then I remembered her… She as me- Then... With a desire to be she again. |

Oh WOW Patricia...this is beautiful and so are you Maree. It's a Well I see you doing, What I try to do for me, With the words from a poet, And a voice from a choir, And a melody, nothing else matters. ~Stevie Nicks |

The rediscovery of youth. I've had so many of these "flashbacks". Loved it! coyotyl |

She still dwells within you .... A very beautiful conversation, dear Patricia! Who started it? It was her who reminded you of who you are ... A beautiful soul. Love, Margherita |

reminds me of conversations with my daughters... I am enjoying watching them discover who they are, what they want, and missing just a bit, when it was my turn...( at the same time realizing, my mom is still watching me learn who I am) enjoyed this very much. |
