I, the dancer, pirouette on this stage of daily days but in the dark of nightly nights I’m a woman awe inspired at the beauty of a dream. Drawn in like a participant I emulate the moves but alone enact emotion in this reality of feel that delivers such a punch to my stability. And every day the turn, turn, turn, highlights a different view to forestall the final closure of the happiest of dreams. But too long a dancer, dreamer, and my testimony fails to impact upon the distanced a sense of mystery meant to join all daily days with every nightly night. Dancers dance and dreamers dream and everyone but me, it seems, knows why they’re not yet joined in holy matrimony! Helen / 20 October 2006 |

Thanks everyone for reading and for commenting. Marge - I'm a-turning, turning, turning, until the final curtain call. Seymour - Well, the name came by accident but all the rest is hard work until it just comes naturally. Linda - It's the marriage of dreams to real that is the final goal of life but, in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter if we don't achieve it in the here and now. |

Hi Jo - We're all so much "not alone" that it's quite scary! Hope all is well with you. ![]() |
