Or else you shall fail
And fall short of attaining
The ultimate prize.
The ultimate prize
Is there anything waiting
At the tunnel's end?
At the tunnel's end
A light can be seen -
No, aneurysm.
No aneurysm-
It's just a little shaky
Where the light comes in
Where the light comes in
That little space between the
Covers that we share.
(See ya later, MC). :wave:
Bye, ShoutGrace!:wave::bawling:
Covers that we share
Still warm from our body heat
Morning- dawn shines through
morning-dawn shines through
the sky is rent bleeding red
rebels against light
Rebels against light
Moths flock to the lit candle
Fighting for their warmth
fighting for their warmth
sisters pull blankets closer
robbing the other
Robbing the other
in raw capital fashion,
democracy's sway.
Democracys sway
Herds of gold lined suits stampede
Bill of Rights debris
Bill of Rights debris
Speech, religion, assembly?
We took them away!
We took them away!
Down to our lair of secrets
For more questioning.
For more questioning
You brought me to your dungeon!
Why do you want me?
We took them away!
Cold iron bars could not hold them
Earthly prison ours
"Why do you want me?"
Sadly, she could not see that
I had no real choice.
whoops beat out again - sorry
For more questioning
The prisoner shivering
Shroud in the dark room
I think both are beat out Janine :D:D. Congrats on the avatar, BTW. :)
Hi Janine!:wave: Hi ShoutGrace!:wave:
Erm, which one are we following?
Hi. :D
Let's make it all work:
Shroud in a dark room
Just have a long look at this
Earthly prison, ours.
earthly prison, ours
but for a bitter season -
better things await
Better things await
Watch the clouds of hope roll by
Like men of old time
Hi Scoutg, Hi Miss Caroline! I just came back from dinner -sorry. I have been wondering if anyone said hi anymore. Seems one person complained one night (won't name names) and everyone has been so quiet and professional, lately. I missed you all! Like it better when we can be a little friendly. SG - Do you like my avy, really? It is a Dali painting I saw in Philadelphia last year - really amazing work of art. I tried to put in another piece of art but it looked too strange, so I put it in my profile page instead for now. I will change my avy from time to time.Quote:

Hi Janine :wave: I say hi. ;)
Eyes sparkle enthralled
by the icy glitter from
the January snow.
Must be the moon tonight - people are saying "hi" - so "hi" back Virg!Quote:

like my avy? Dali painting but inside my profile is one of my favorites by Howard Pyle
Painted stillness white
While we keep the fire going.
Anticipating spring.
I can't tell what the picture is. Let me look it up. What's the painting called?
Anticipating spring
The buds fuller now, with dew
Dripping pregnant boughs
Painting is Pieta by Dali
I thought you could make out the man floating in space....no?
Is that what that is? :blush: I can't make it out, but my eyes are lousy. I can't find it on the internet. Do you have a link for it?Quote:

Nice haiku - and I loved your one before that, too. I will go look it up...ok?
Warm sun over woods
Speckle the branches and mud
frogs leap in the sun
Virg, here is what I am going to do - put it in your email (PM) - don't want to put this link in this post. Will explain in PM.
OK, thanks.
Frog leaps in the sun;
Dog whispers that frog is crazy.
Cat prowls in the yard.
Cat prowls in the yard
Mice scatter to and fro, quick
Stealth is against us
Stealth is against us
Stumbling around in the dark
The night covers all
And I love your avatar! I thought it might be a Dali.... And I know why you didn't post a link...:brow:
The night covers all
Our twisting, temptuous passion
Remains just for us.
No link...? :confused:...I don't get it!! :bawling:
The night covers all
Darkness creates solitude
Lovers...secrecy...
EDIT: Nyeh. :p
Remains just for us
Room where we meet in secret
Lovers...secrecy...
Cute smiley...is that groucho marx?
Thanks MissC, on my Avy choice - did not know if it showed up right so small. That can be a problem. First one I posted is in my Profile page - a fav of Howard Pyle. He taught the Wyeths. Wonderful illustrator.
The night covers all
The moon, not quite full, glowing
Trees darker than sky
whow - really got beat out that time!
