Redefining movements, marinating grace Indigenous charisma, properties of ballet We caress, becoming the core of dance Practicing, like a soft lighted Victorian lamp Vulnerable electric, turned suitable for eating Wading streams with nostalgic spiral replies Desperation is no longer a cause or effect Humming birds advance, through an obscurity of what was A rugged tender craft, now obtaining true substance Sharing mutual tears, he guides us to a workshop Taking a few tentative steps toward a spinning top Seemingly, easiness, in the way we cried Gentle becomes, fermenting essence to vine Considering, sense of stability & fair proportions Selecting a handful of herbs, as they begin to ripen Never taking more then we need As we leave the boat, slightly salty and tan We become, by warmth, of our own gardening hands Beside placid breathing of some natural graciousness We chisel a smoldering scandal to radiant flames of patience From a pretty white face more kindly heroic I’ll never forget his life-saving Heimlich As for me, the clock now ticks faster, it seems It may not be long till I find myself seasoned So, I’m investing in a Uncomplaining Assistance Program Because One never knows what tomorrow bestows it's become essential to arrange all my ducks in a row |

"Because One never knows what tomorrow bestows it's become essential to arrange all my ducks in a row" Sometimes planning is a good thing... Great write Lee J. Always enjoy your thoughts and philosophy. JL She said: ”You look cute in the dark.” |
