life



The earth has a way of reclaiming it's grounds of

Death; cold stagnentation of yesterday.

There are so many beautiful sprouts fisting their way to the surface

with such a presence.

NO FEAR!!!

As I walk through this magical reincarnation of my surroundings

My thoughts are captured by these moments, further than beauty and arbitration.

If I allow myself to flow through the depths of simplicity,

though only just a moment, my peace could quite possibly

grasp the interactions I have, to be more clear.

Things become as complicated as I make them, as if grasping a particular storm...

Refusing to let go...

It dissapates into the clear...

Left standing with only a mirror.

I am one who's nature spawns within a given storm versus the simplistic nature that surrounds

one dear.

There has to be a way the old weathered wounds of yesterday could dissapate as the storm.

I could only then flourish in the beautiful presence I am and see before me today.

For maybe...only then...

I could feel safe to melt the glass surrounding my heart and surrender to the one love in my life

who so patiently and passionately caresses me near.

Sometimes storms are more comfortable, more familiar.

Time heals all wounds so they say, but soemtimes one is withered and grey by the time it is healed. But love is always there to be rekindled if we can but heal our wounds our selves by letting these troublesome things go. Then the glass is indeed melted to allow the surrender of the soul. Reopen no healed wounds

felt flying..we are all butterflies, and we pass by a cycle where we feel withered and lost in the storm..but eventually we transform into the beautiful form again..

ah, I'm guessing you're in the beauty again..surrounded by butterflies :)

this is beautiful, thanks for sharing! :)

I surrender to you my earthling host and when I get home to Mars I will tell them about a creative anomaly like you.

I was once trapped in a cocoon but now I am a full grown space-age butterfly myself who listens to Diamanda Galas.

Ready for blast-off ... you will hear from me in another life!!!!
