Thunder
By Leann Marshall
 
Give your heart to me
And I will give you my own
You said once
Then time forgot
Paths widened
Took me far away
So struck
So bold
Who knew then
The Earth is round?
One day
When
Youth becomes old
Homebound
Thunder tears from me
What I have held onto for so very long
Had thought myself strong
And yet
Opened hands are only there to give
Relive
So I must have wanted to,
Secretly
Eyes wrenched open
Clearly
Translucence becomes pain
Unwanted jewel
Sketched in silver rain
Collected in opalescent pools
From which to drink
Wash away regrets
And watch the lips of my own
Reflection telling
The incredible story of
You

IT IS USUALLY DURING A RAINY TIME, WHEN ONE HAS NOT 'EATEN' FOR A LONG WHILE, YES, IT IS DURING SUCH A TIME AS THIS THAT THE 'PAST'... DECIDES TO SPREAD SUCH A TEMPTING TABLE BEFORE US. AND THE TABLE IS LADEN WITH ITS DELICACIES...SOME WE WANT AND SOME WE DO NOT WANT, HOWEVER...WE SIT AND DINE, CAREFULLY INJESTING IT ALL...AS THE 'THUNDER'...ROLLS. THANK YOU, POET, FOR THIS MARVELOUS ATISTICAL SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS & FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

Karma Bank to Following By Listening by Chiemi

These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
