Scales of Weight |

Scales of Weight This world is full of scales of weight Of circumstance and of debate Of lullabies and songs of rue Of prophecy and what seems true It’s full of light and shadows fall Of things you do and don’t recall Of fireflies and stars of bright Of things you see and dreams of night It’s full of moments put to weave Tied in knots of mixed conceive Some concerned and some confirmed And some you feel you have not earned With this tightrope we must cope It either that or wave our hope We’re nothing but a swoop of grime Simmering in the soup of time But if I be a table wine I would champagne they label mine. |

But if I be a table wine I would champagne they label mine. ================================== Raspberry Wine... right? and I am drunk on your divine rhyme. *L* *winkiewinkie* I would love to live as a river flows, carried by the surprise of its own unfolding. ~Fluent~ John O'Donohue |

My friend... this is one of my favorites... in part because I know a visit with you is as delightful as the bubbly could ever be... but you leave fond memories instead of headaches. *S* I love this! |
