tell me again why snow melts And it was gone leaving the dun again to muddy trees that cling to cold wet stones and simple wet replacing the brilliant moist that had settled from cut grey clouds to paint strokes of pale across wide furrows she had cut deep through layers long ago laid down when cedar did not yet grow or grass tend the wind with fine fingers in bend of supple flesh bared to the crease then it stormed forked tongues of fire as spoke the sky deep throated from belly of clouds pregnant with the gusts of breath no longer warm on the back of our necks as we lay exposed in pristine white robes unable to hold crystalline forms being washed from skin by this horde of avenging drops throwing themselves at the edges of oak till stillness reigned over the rise of pale sun giving bloodless eyes to rough handed slap of wind that brought her high from the corner of her sleep in stiff peaked roll that grabbed hard to hold the cracks formed in brittle skin with unrequited wails of cold cold spray along sheltered coves green seasons having passed Soon the sun will again grow bolder and night will hike her skirts to let warm enter in those places she would have filled to the smell of burning cedar where sage is offered unseeing eyes blind but for the feel of wisps that creep along eddies born in currents deeper than even soul I wait twisted in the tangled grow of eyes that peer towards the west wondering if the sky will snow yet this winter's day or if angels will find themselves undressed of silk leaving only satin to please upturned palms that can not hold back the sighs or god's laugh should they fail to find white on white or Akashic indigo written in the bones of one more winter |

For several personals... consider this tucked within for a long, long time. Karilea - if I whisper, will you listen? Keeping in mind, I must stand close...and keep my promises... |

"I wait twisted in the tangled grow of eyes that peer towards the west wondering if the sky will snow yet this winter's day or if angels will find themselves undressed of silk leaving only satin to please upturned palms that can not hold back the sighs or god's laugh should they fail to find white on white or Akashic indigo written in the bones of one more winter" As I finished reading this I realized I felt as though I had just come in from a brisk walk in the clean fresh snow... Beautiful once again Ron. Thank you sir. ~ Let peace begin with me... ~ |

tell me again why snow melts ============================== So you would write this beautiful poem  Soon the sun will again grow bolder and night will hike her skirts to let warm enter in those places she would have filled to the smell of burning cedar where sage is offered unseeing eyes blind but for the feel of wisps that creep along eddies born in currents deeper than even soul I wait twisted in the tangled grow of eyes that peer towards the west wondering if the sky will snow yet this winter's day or if angels will find themselves undressed of silk leaving only satin to please upturned palms that can not hold back the sighs or god's laugh should they fail to find white on white or Akashic indigo written in the bones of one more winter ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ keep this up and the moth will be doing snow dances... and you know how I hate winter... LOL |

I wait twisted in the tangled grow of eyes that peer towards the west wondering if the sky will snow yet this winter's day or if angels will find themselves undressed of silk leaving only satin to please upturned palms that can not hold back the sighs or god's laugh should they fail to find white on white or Akashic indigo written in the bones of one more winter Wow, just wow, no words! It is trying to snow here - maybe tonight and I can not wait! Example is not the main thing in influencing others, it is the only thing. |
