mist in the trees



Time Found


Run away with me -
I'm leaving now following a warm trail of imagination.
Slipping between, moist vapor swiftly moves,
trees appearing and disappearing - deception a namesake
.
Moments pass quickly when noticing the slice of moon
sliding across night's gateway to tomorrow
.

Darkness settles into the corners of the room as lamps are silenced.
Be my imagination not that of Goya's ghosts -
I seek a warmer, friendlier, more hopeful place
.
Lifting evening's gentle cover close under my chin
time greets me as familiar as an old friend -
one I have been missing.

Thanks Jenny and Leesa - I don't often organize my word-thoughts into anything resembling a poem… this just arrived and arranged itself this morning out of my end-of-the-day tweeting on twitter last night.

I am glad that you enjoyed it:)

“… this just arrived and arranged itself this morning …”  Oh, Terrill - I wish I lived inside your head.  This is simply beautiful.  And the supporting photograph is stunning.  Thank you, yet again, for another lovely gift.

Thanks Just ME :)

Jenny, this is an interesting idea. There is a Gaia friend who I think does this very well and that is Michael Grove. His profile name is http://my-head.gaia.com/profile . What fascinates me about Michael's work is how he always links us to all the sidebar conversations (rabbit holes) that make up the context for what he is currently communicating. For example, one of the things that Michael and I have in common is that we are both left-handed and dyslexic - try following just the hyperlinks on Michael's profile page and subsequence hyperlinks for these two facets of exploration. Enjoy!

… and SO BE IT !

What I have concluded, after ALL these years, IS that the propensity of every left-handed dyslexic, IS to THINK in 3D, whereas the vast majority of the species, including my soulmate, think only in 2D.

IT has always been a source of great frustration that I could understand the most complex of things but never come to terms with tying my shoelaces.

My vision as a child was of a time when ALL members of my species could communicate with, and understand each-other, regardless of ethnicity or language, within my own 3D space.

My portal on that 3D space has now been manifested in the form of zaadz@gaia.
