A fire-mist and a planet, A crystal and a cell, A jellyfish and a saurian, And caves where the cavemen dwell; Then a sense of law and beauty, And a face turned from the clod. Some call it Evolution, And others call it God. ~ William Herbert Carruth~ POSTERIOR REPLAY? Liquid fire, moonshine's glow Scorching tongues, forked in row Blazing light.......eternal flame Midnight skies....sizzled frame Rivers running 'cross the skies Wild dancing...world awry Up is down.....hot is cool Winds of change.....break the rules Earthbound flies, skies grow thin Solid, rumbles, quakes and spins Hours lengthen, days won't sleep Shallows yawn, and swallow deep Peek-a-boo, what are you? Here's a riddle...solid...through Tell me what's beneath your feet! Concentrate, try not to cheat! Can you feel it, 'neath your toes Inhale, exhale...fill your nose! Press it smooth..... or let it tumble To vesseled earth...we bow humbled Patience beyond time unknown Slaved it, claimed it as our home Changed the course of purest face Mastered all as human race Come the end, whose hand will rule Did we learn, as we were schooled? Millions stand...upon the one The end may be....as it begun Pax Lady A (c)2004

Had real music, the music of the spheres. :-) kenny
1968. My grandmother and I sat in the front row of a wide screen theatre in Los Altos. The ape-man picked up a tapir bone and used it as a tool, a weapon. That music came up and I was mesmerized. My grandmother closed her eyes for the rest of the show. Thanks for reminding me!
