~*~ Kansas is an odd place where else can you find seagulls massing over March green that doesn’t move They come in with the gulf stream calling Kansas home [again], then take thoughts away back to the sea and you wonder why shells are found in Kansas. The gulls come home, like their ancestors, when this vast was under water How easy to see Kansas again when someone talks to you of Dorothy or Toto How easy it is to think it just one way flat black and white dust and tornadoes They don’t see these vast swellings of land nor blowing of wind Which is easy to miss if you are not looking or feeling ... I can create the wind ~ I can blow and you would hear Kansas But only if I am right by your ear would you feel it ~*~ |

Now it's my turn.... Dang woman, what a drift you weave, images taking the reader to all kinds of lovely places...the admiration which seeps through your words, the confidence that walks with you, is quit the gift in knowing you... And....I ain't whistlin Dixie... No pun intended on PS.... Hugs |

Sissie I can see very well how the fields of wheat are indeed like the sea, and the sound of the wind within them, the crash of waves...yes, I can see...thanks to you!! |

Karilea, that was exceptionally lovely. I found myself clicking my heels and saying,"I want to go home. I want to go home. I want to go to your Kansas home!" Love & Sun Light, Linda |

No one can affect the weather (though some do pretend to with a pretty convincing schtick....), but if I could I'd conjure a storm that would sweep you, house and all, away from Kansas and southward to some warm place near the sea....and I'd whomp any wiz who tried to bring you back! ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Smiling at the 'Kansas' canvas, an ocean of thoughts; and I thought 'SEA' gulls never went that far inland except to congregate around the city dumps! |

Reads like a day trip, poeticly speaking. You took me there Karilea, and it is beautiful. |
