White Space Something concealed from my eyes Provokes in tincture of iodine zeal Chaos that flashes slotted views Callusing my mind as I attempt revision Pouring out etched remnants of together That life is boundless, an adventure Thwarted only by the limits self imposed Speaking not of consideration or compassion But by doing and feeling, craft and fabric Religion is a surrogate thread to destiny Calligraphy or doodle of whim Written in verse, or prose to ponder Sent forth preemptive of an actual step Where light fondles the horizon slowly Guarding footstep and precipice alike Here I write, regarding distance as time Leaving traces of myself upon a page Making promises unbroken and barriers un-felled Yet when I read the wisdom of my seeking Here I find white space where I intended love Copyright Kkh 8/15/06 |

Kathleen~ With thoughts like this - 'light fondles the horizon slowly' - you color the white space poetically perfect~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Where light fondles the horizon slowly Guarding footstep and precipice alike Here I write, regarding distance as time Leaving traces of myself upon a page Making promises unbroken and barriers un-felled Yet when I read the wisdom of my seeking Here I find white space where I intended love TD: Profound words you have penned here. Love can be construed in the interpretation: Where nothing said indeed is gain, if it is truly understood. As in: “Love means never having to say you’re sorry.” Good to read you again. Beautiful write TD. JL Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: |

"Leaving traces of myself upon a page" I love this. I read the love in the white spaces, don't you? Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
