A State of Lime
I stared into a sky of lime That seemed to touch forever’s time It passed beyond horizons frail And beckoned me a phantoms trail
It picked me up a feathers breeze Tossed me in a state of tease Floated me a mental vie Into the lime within the sky
I knew it was a fantasy A moment of serenity For I was held in gentle grace A lullaby of mental space
And as I felt the wind of free Surcease filled every trace of me And brine dissolved a sea of fears That washed away those nettle tears
Yet in that moment heaven sent There came a twinge of discontent.

This brought back a tender memory Sy... and isn't it amazing, that even when we are at our most serene, there is always a twinge of something else...
I guess that makes us human.

there you are, you stinker, I almost missed your words today, and I was a mess!
anyway, wiping off all my sytears....
You know, we always fear the unknown, or what we don't understand, until it's past and then realize, there was nothing to fear at all.
or at least, those are the thoughts your words inspired this morn.
Thank you

Ah, yes. It be so true. Ofttimes there be sour with the sweet ~ but I happen to love limes!
With God as my witness, I have been sucking on one while at my computer. I rolled it back and forth on my desk and then punctured it (I think I heard it scream!!!)~ and then I squeezed its tartness into my sometimes overly sugar-coated mouth! lol
Life can often be a candy-coated lime! ~ Mind you, I prefer candied apples!
Sweet and sour kisses, EA

I used to call myself the queen of discontent...but then I saw the ocean and realized that water held my inner peace ... and so whenever I feel that dicontent creeping in...I head for the creek, or river, or lake.... and...your beaches of understand. *winkiewinkie* Ink runs from the corners of my mouth. There is no happiness like mine ... I've been eating poetry.

"Yet in that moment heaven sent There came a twinge of discontent."
I think we humans become upset when things are going to well...and do something to change it. Why is that? You got me thinking with this one, my friend.
