--and we will become a happy ending--

Incredible, and it and the picture compliment each other so well. Perfectly, in fact.

Bravo.

"... shuffle forward, eyes downcast
hands outstretched to receive your life ..."

"Cling to me firefly." I love that line. That should be song. It just makes the firefly seem so vulnerable and the author of the poem is taking care of her.

I don't know what else to say, that line just knocked me down You're such a quality writer.

Guess my life is a compromise.

I think this is beautiful, and it makes me glad that I am going to camp tonight.

very different from what I saw in the forums. I like the changes. The second stanza really surprised me, and while I still don't thing I understand it entirely, it's gorgeous.

maybe at some point you could give the rest of us a little manual on how to write like you

here lies one whose name was writ in water

This is so pretty..

Speaking of fireflies... we called them lightening bugs when I was a child, well I'm still a child, so when I was younger. We'd go out at night with our jars and catch them. They were everywhere. I always let them go..... well almost always. Now, you hardly ever see them, on those soft summer nights. I called Oklahoma University one time and spoke to a professor who had written an article about fireflies. I was hoping to learn how to create a...um... habitat or a breeding area like you do for butterflies, bats, etc. But I guess no one really knows how to do that.

Well, I got off the subject. I love this piece and the screenshot too. I will go pay my respects to the artist.

I can clearly see the connection with aquifier. I understand that you separated them because of the different pieces of the overall picture. The search for light (truth) is a universal motion in your book ... and I like to see more works like these. I simply love the style and the thought patterns you line up. In the connection with aquifier I think the former is the stronger piece. Why because it is more open to interpretation. Whenever I use a statements, like you did in the last line, I always try to find something or somehow to oppose, nullify or mystify. Not that it has to be mentioned, yet I think that whenever the light (or truth) is sought after the motive of doubt (confusion) should have some interaction with it. Especially since clinging is an attachment of faith in a sense, whereas faith and truth are two different words ... just pointing out where this hints me to.

On the same count I can clearly see what you've done to capture the picture that accompanies this piece. Great twist on seeing what is not directly seen in that respect.
