I feel like I am wading in a tide pool of clichés, trapped within the currents, left without a chance, up to my eyes in all the ways words choose whimsically to dance and mingle like the errant willful thought threads that they are, scattered by a dragon wind’s caprice, within the mistral’s seductive tingle the spiteful wind that strews them near and far while I hang on for my dear life; my soul keeps spinning like a top. Dear gods please help me I am rhyming and can’t find a way to stop. ©2006 by icebox [This message has been edited by icebox (01-12-2006 10:52 PM).] |

The soul sings, dear icebox, with happiness when it remembers "things" and there where those "things" live everything starts and ends perfectly in sync. Here in this time we could perhaps call it rhyme so don't knock it just yet - wait for the results but don't pre-empt them by a maybe misguided thinking process. Got a penny for me now?   Helen |

Man, now you made me laugh there icey, at the end and I was sitting here with my face all scrunched up and serious . . . You need "Runny Babbit" (Shel Silversteins's new book) No kidding . . . mind blowing. |

Laughing at Sue's scrunched up face... *grin* I enjoyed this, icebox... Gave me a much needed smile tonight... Thanks for that... and Sue?... Shel has a new book?... I really must find myself a life... and a copy of the book too...  "When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace." --Jimi Hendrix |
