photo by my first internet friend Paul Crouch "Pablo" http://www.pablos4corners.com/ "The thread of our life would be dark, Heaven knows! if it were not with friendship and love intertwin'd." Thomas Moore ~~*~~ Sun rose, a ball of fire pressing the coming day thoughts to a destination unknown. Absence of presence in the quiet morn faded, as challenges mounted and a smile reached its level of contentment. Sun set as the Full Moon rose like a quartz crystal ball. Imperfections of the day to carry me into nightshadow arms. I ache in those places unseen and fear the uncrowded and abandonment, when anchored in night's cover. To close the distance... To be held up by words... and reach tomorrow's dance... the matter of me~~ MM "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." (Will Moss) |

A very good poem, a very fitting picture, and a lead in quote from one of the worlds great poets... But these lines, in my mind, make it better than a very good poem, in fact, they make it an excellent one... "Absence of presence in the quiet morn faded..." I love "Absence of presence" times, they give the mind a chance to rest... enjoyed ------------ice ><> |
