(Sometimes it helps to "write it out") Hands reach across the great divide and spiritually entwine to exonerate a lie but mystic sensitivity inherent in the flesh also a soothsayer and discerner of the truth. One day a silent touch of shy tenderness traveled so the path of spirit into flesh in the dark seeking, probing, and disputing the façade of human nature considered paramount. Over and across imperfect body lines but above, way above, the sense of human laws and I became a woman in the likeness of true love beyond the mortal eyes of the one in denial. For God so loved the world … and I the sacrifice thrown lonely on this stage of unfulfilled desire to forever hold aloft the flame eternal love as a humbling experience of the human kind. Forsaken - but I know I’m trapped in present times dependant on fool’s gold to allow the words to flow but not on knees shuffle I into the way beyond because not my bells but His ring in the changes. Spiritually entwined and the best I do is cry but rather put it down to the common cold that dribbles so continuously the water of my soul! Helen / 4 May 2005 |

Dixia and Adagio - thank you so much for the read and for your kind comments. Hi, Bluesy! A sincere thank you. Passionate spirit? Perhaps that's the secret of life - oh, but passionate about ALL things in life otherwise we are but as "souding brass" merely going through the motions. I really do appreciate your supportive comments. |
