No one needs to know |

Rain falls as if to say, “I cry with you today” and both of us together confined within a prayer rock to beats of memory like the old and frail with nothing else to do. Back and forth, time is nought, no one needs to know soul’s exaggerated feel of experience blocked by control from everyday awareness. How painful the memory of spirit arms in lift and love’s acute outflow intermingling and entwining as a protective shield but no one needs to know the burdens of a soul. And the young pushing old from rock to rock unknown the waterfall and freefall, the laughter “now no more”, and hands on bodies touching … but no one needs to know how spirit love can grow. Yet the old in me remembers green and fertile meadows now a battle field dead to spirit needs … but no one needs to know how solid is the line between this life and love and I cry with the rain, today I cry again! |

outstanding Helen And the young pushing old from rock to rock unknown the waterfall and freefall, the laughter “now no more”, and hands on bodies touching … but no one needs to know how spirit love can grow.

The words hold so much meaning. Hugs |

Thank you, Robert and Gentle S, for the read. It's a very dark and dismal day here today. I suppose it's just to make me know how much I can miss the sun. |
